Platinum Luxury Auctions: Emerald Hills | Charlottesville, VA
REPRODUCTION COST OF $20 MILLION. NOW SELLING AT OR ABOVE ONLY $5 MILLION! Built over the course of four years, Emerald Hills is situated on 112 acres just outside of Charlottesville, Virginia. Overlooking hardwood forests, a private lake, and the Blue Ridge Mountains, this estate is a stunning example of Neoclassical architecture in the style of Jefferson’s Monticello, which is just 15 minutes south of the Property. The layout of the home, with its main structure connected to northern and southern dependencies by a series of curved hyphens, was modeled on another American President’s residence: Mount Vernon, the estate of George Washington. Interior details from the current White House have been reproduced through the home, and include touches in the dining room and the western colonnade, which mimics the south facade of the White House overlooking the Rose Garden.
At the end of a mile-long private drive accessed via a stately wrought-iron gate, the Property welcomes with a two-story portico supported by Ionic columns. Lush, manicured grounds surround the estate, and include 1,000 dogwoods, redbuds and crape myrtle trees in addition to formal gardens, fountains and a 100-ft long soapstone reflecting pool. A lake, two ponds, a stream, and several brooks with springs are also on the Property. Set apart from the manicured grounds is a vegetable garden modeled on Thomas Jefferson’s with four 100-ft x 8-ft raised beds connected by Shenandoah brownstone walkways, and a home orchard of more than 100 trees (including peach, cherry, nectarine, plum and apple) complements the savory plantings.
In addition to the main residence, the Property has several outbuildings: a Carriage House (with 2,000 sf of living space and 2,700 sf devoted to housing up to 10 vehicles), Garden House, and a log cabin add additional living space from which to relax and enjoy the grace and charm of Emerald Hills.

Hobart Reservoir - Part 7 Old Virginia City Gold Hill Waterworks
Established in 1873 this water company built an iron pipeline when the Hobart Reservoir, Martlette and Spooner Lake could be harvested for its water. Due to the heavy growth of the Comstock Lode of Virginia City this state of the art pipeline brought water from the sierras nearly 30 miles over the Virginia Range. Today many sites can be seen left behind from the old waterworks such as pipes, dams and even a monitoring station called Red House which you will see footage of in this series. If you like old rusty things then this really is the clip for you its an awesome site to stumble upon and if you pay attention you will see more of the waterworks along Franktown Creek!

Rivanna Trail -- Hydraulic Road to Greenbriar Park Part 1
This is me riding my 2010 Trek Fuel Ex8 on the Rivanna Trail from Hydraulic Road to Greenbriar Park in Charlottesville Virginia.
A few seconds into this video I fell off the short narrow bridge. Basically, I got too close to the edge, panicked because I don't like heights, and then it was all over. No harm though other than some scratches on my arms and legs from the briars I fell into.
I'm going to try and eventually have videos of the whole trail system up. And yes I know that this trail system is primarily for hikers and runners and try my best to be courteous to them and get out of their way.

First US City Bans Drones!
Charlottesville, Virginia, home to Thomas Jefferson and the University of Virginia, has a long history of being a voice for freedom. Now it can add freedom from drones to the list, as Charlottesville's anti-drone resolution is the first of its kind in the nation. The resolution, which passed by a 3 to 2 vote, calls on the Virginia General Assembly and Congress to adopt legislation barring information obtained from drones from being used court-- and the city itself has adopted such a ban locally. The measure also endorses a proposed two year moratorium on drones in Virginia. Even though the legislation won't do anything to prevent federal or state operated drones from flying over Charlottesville, the resolution has raised awareness and prompted other cities and states across the US to take similar measures.
