Fence Me In – Richmond’s Fencing Experts

For affordable and quality Richmond fencing company in Virginia, you should check out Fence Me In.  Choosing the type of fence you want is hard enough, but finding a company who builds it right for a price you can afford is even harder.

Lots of fence companies will use dry packing when the set the fence posts.  This allows the fence to be built quicker, but doesn’t make for a very steady fence in the long run.  Dry packing can allow the fence posts to shift before ground water can have the chance to set up the foundation.  Fence Me In buries fence posts into two feet of  concrete, ensuring that the fence posts are straight and true.

The fence posts are just the tip of the iceberg.  Fence Me In uses heavy duty hinges to guard against a saggy fence, and all the wood they use is pressure treated pine.  They build fences out of wood, vinyl, chain link, and aluminum, and there are many examples on their website of the styles you can choose.  If you want something you don’t see there, just ask, because Fence Me In can create a custom fence for you.

Fence Me In, an accredited member of the Better Business Bureau, is also capable of professional land surveys, and maintains a very high customer service rating.  Also, every fence built by Fence Me In yields a contribution to the SPCA.

Fence Me In can be reached on the phone at 888-FENCING, or you can fill out their online contact form.

Carytown Burgers and Fries

I’ve been trying to spend a little more time in Carytown lately.  On a nice sunny day, there are few nicer things to do than to walk around our cute, cool, funky little shopping district.  I was there with my mom, and we were both pretty hungry.  I asked what she was in the mood for, and she said she was craving a cheeseburger.  How fortuitous, because we were right near Carytown Burgers & Fries.  I asked her if she’d ever been there and she hadn’t.  I couldn’t believe it!

How much do I actually need to talk about the food?  You’ve eaten the burgers.  You know they put Five Guys and all the other chains to shame.  You know they’re big, and cheesy, and delicious, and that the fries are great (even when you get them takeout), and that Carytown Burgers and Fries is awesome (and likely the best hangover food in all of Richmond).  So, I will tell you about my own personal experience eating there, because even though I’ve consumed my fair share of their burgers, I’d actually never eaten at Mike Barber’s fine establishment.

Not only was Mike, owner and burgermeister, behind the counter when we ordered, he also came outside to see if we were enjoying our lunch.  He chatted with us for a bit, and was super nice and charming, and just the kind of Carytown business owner that keeps us coming back there Tuesday after Tuesday.

You can learn all about Mike on the About CB&F page on the website, and you can learn all about the indoor and outdoor eating areas.  We ate outdoors, in the cozy patio area, with the charmingly wilted ceiling fans.  We left with full tummies and spirits full of goodwill and community. What more can you ask for?

A Classic Richmond Shopping Institution – Regency Mall

When Short Pump Town Center and Stony Point Fashion Park opened several years ago, we thought it was curtains for Regency Mall.  Despite it’s central location, the stores inside it were failing, business was bad, and the Taco Bell even pulled out of the food court.  I actually don’t remember if there was a Taco Bell at Regency Mall. But trust me, it was that dire.  With the demise of Cloverleaf and the creepy dwindlingness (yes, I made that word up) of Willow Lawn, I feared for my favorite mall in a big way.

Today, however, Regency Mall is doing a lot better.  It’s hard to find a place to park near my favorite entrance (which is not, incidentally, The Food Court), I almost get mowed down by octogenarians in sneakers on a per visit basis, and the Chick Fil A always has a line.  Ah, commerce.

Some of the anchor stores are still the same as they were in 1975, when the mall opened its doors.  The JCPenny and Sears are still kicking, and Richmond Biz Sense reported in 2008 that Regency had the second-lowest vacancy rate among Richmond shopping centers.

With the addition of Texas de Brazil and Charming CHARLIE, I have real hope that this mall is going to thrive.  Granted, I am not anywhere near the age of 21 (and  XXI Forever just opened a huge store there), but there is always Macy’s, Williams-Sonoma, and The Body Shop to keep me happy.
