 RH> Does she thing she is able to get a Wegman's to open up just by

She was hoping that she might be a magnet for Wegmans stores, seeing as
how it had worked twice before... ;)  I think that first VA store that
opened was the very first in the DC area, and she'd been living there
for a couple of years already...  And then to have the second one open
up right across the street from where she'd moved, that just clinched
it...  (G)

 RH> It would be nice to get one the size that the Shipps have in their
 RH> area but I'd gladly settle for one the size that is in Brockport.

Their usual m.o. nowadays seems to be the bigger stores... especially
when opening new market areas.... dunno if they'd scale down a little
for WF after Raleigh...  

 NB>> She says she's ready to write a letter
 NB>> to Danny, pleading with him to give her back her access... ;)

 RH> He might write back telling her to move to a place that has one. (G)
 
He might...  (G)  One never knows, though...  :)

 NB>> Before moving to VA, she'd been here in Rochester (got her nursing
 NB>> degree at Roberts Wesleyan)...  well and truly hooked...  ;)  She
 NB>> was here in town for the memorial service last week...

 RH> Did she stock up on her favorite Wegman's goodies while in town?

Couldn't... she was flying out of Rochester.... Bad enough that she'd
acquired more clothes from her sisters along the way... She'd flown into
Boston, rented a car there, and had spent some time driving around the
East Coast, visiting family and friends in VA, PA and NY before ending
up in Rochester in time for the service...  The trip had been planned
before, and she extended it just a little for the service...  Hopefully
she had a chance to at least get some of her favorite Wegmans goodies
whilst in the area...  :)

 RH> Steve's younger sister got a 2 year nursing degree just out of high
 RH> school but a few years ago went to Robert's to get her B.S. in nursing.

It's a good school for nursing, from what I've heard... :)  Bekah went
on to get her masters as Nurse Practioner... she's a pediatric nurse,
NICU in particular... :)
