Really? I think the fact that you don't understand says more about you. You clearly don't know much about this area.

Yes, the "area" clearly has a plethora of people with a lot of free time on hands to get all worked up over a dinky little ferry (the importance of which is being laughably overblown on this thread and elsewhere) and a piece of farm property that 99.5% of the region's population has no reason to ever visit.

Overblown, really? Check out the Hilaria Baldwin thread on the Entertainment forum. That's overblown.

The farm tried to negotiate and the Ferry refused.

They tried to buy the business from them. That's extortion. Sell to us or we shut you down.

False. They also offered to lease the land to them. White’s refused. Whites wants all the money for themselves. They didn’t even respond to various forms in contact from Rockland’s lawyers. Whites knew all along this was the path it would take.

Hi Libby! Good try. Go back in your hole.

Who is Libby?

It doesn’t matter anyway. The court sided with Rockland. The only one who lost anything here is White’s. So few people used the stupid thing (with all the waiting it was not convenient and didn’t save time) and it was constantly closed due to high water. I don’t see what the big deal is that it’s gone.

Libby is the new Rockland owner who keeps posting her side on Facebook.

There are like, 50 people on the planet who care about this. I bet more people show up to my HOA meeting than care about this.

The ferry transports 600 vehicles per day. It’s a vital conduit for rural populations on each side of the river who frequently cross for business purposes.

The losers are the people complaining about the closure of some rinky dink ferry that closes every time it rains an inch.

Libby is the new Rockland owner who keeps posting her side on Facebook.

She’s not the “new owner.” She’s a member of the Rust-Brown family who have owned the property for 200+ years. Her mother - Betsey Brown - died last year. Libby and her siblings are on the Rockland Farm Land Trust, which in turn owns the property. The land trust allows the Rockland Farm LLC to run the property as a vacation rental, wedding venue, and agricultural activities. Libby is the GM of the LLC, but she grew up on the property.

You've called me this twice now. I have no association to Rockland and in fact had never heard of it prior to this ridiculous news story. Loudoun residents are so ridiculous. I regret moving here. I just wanted an "affordable" house. But everyone here is crazy.
