Arrow This here is a perfect example...

This here is why i can honestly say that this state aint always such a bad place to live..I wish I could personally thank these people.....

PRINCE EDWARD - Kyle Baldwin, president of the family corporation F.G.B. Inc., has announced the sale of approximately 2,800 acres known as Featherfin Farm to the State Department of Game and Inland Fisheries.
The property will become a wildlife management area.
"We've been working on it for a year and a half trying to sell it and...we turned down two or three developers who wanted to buy it and cut it up, but we were looking for something that would keep it in one piece...." Baldwin told The Herald Thursday.
He also commented, "We hated to see it get in the hands of a developer, really. We wanted the state to have it."
The property, located about 10 miles west of Farmvllle, borders more than 10 miles along the Appomattox River in portions of Prince Edward, Buckingham and Appomattox counties.
"...I'm just so glad that we could preserve this very unique piece of land," commented Virginia Delegate Watkins Abbitt Jr. (I-59th), who introduced a budget amendment in the General Assembly that helped to finance the purchase. "And I'd like to thank the... Baldwin family who...bent over backwards to make sure that the state purchased it."
