I saw them earlier today when I was leaving my old neighborhood and stopped to say hi. They were preoccupied eating salad that the universe properly provides. They seem much more reserved than in their younger days. Great to see them again but it makes me a little nostalgic.

Yes, a good ordinance. Although I don't have data at hand, I recall much of the "agricultural" acreage in Albemarle is not the kind of agriculture that feeds humans but qualifies for property tax reductions. It is a few decades since I saw this information, but I suspect nothing much has changed.
