Chilly Hollow isn't too far from the center of what is called Hunt Country here in Virginia. Think grand estates, horses, trees and exotic farm animals everywhere, stone fences that run for miles and of course, the extremely wealthy. This area features fox hunting, horse tack, and of course dogs. In my limited experience the folks who live Hunt Country are usually conservative needlepointers but there is nothing wrong with that. Who doesn't love a nice belt in basketweave occasionally? That's the best meditation I know.
