Yep. I’ve lived in Altavista and Lynchburg. Used to cut through Concord and Rustburg to get to Altavista from Appomattox. I worked in tobacco fields when I was in High School. Harvesting dark leaf was backbreaking work, but got us out of school a few weeks.

Before long, I imagine there won’t be any tobacco fields left in Virginia.

What a small world it is.
