Now showing in the July/August 2013 issue of Virginia Living, our feature presentation is a celebration of cinema under the stars as we tour the Commonwealth’s nine drive-in movie theaters. We also visit historic Castle Hill in Albemarle County, where a new readers and writers series of retreats is reviving the plantation’s literary tradition, and enjoy summer's crop of sweet melon. In our special new Dental Health section we focus on Operation Smile, an organization celebrating 30 years of performing life-changing surgeries in the developing world. Also inside: We share a pint or two with Kevin O’Connor and get the inside story of how he founded O’Connor Brewing Co. in Norfolk. We also meet media maven Sheila Johnson as she prepares to open Salamander Resort & Spa in Middleburg, find out why the 10 members of Richmond’s No BS! Brand march to their own beat, go back in time to play some vintage base ball (two words) at Oatlands Plantation in Leesburg, get you prepped for a smashing good time at demolition derbies this summer, learn how the Virginia Farm Bureau saved the State Fair, and much more.
