This is how strange things can happen. After returning from our lifestyle visit in April 2011, we listed our home for sale. The manager for the new Wegman store flew in for two days to go house hunting. The first person to view our home, was the Wegman manager and she bought our home. We sold our home in one day.
BTW, the manager of that Wegman store knew where TV was when I told her we were moving here, she had relatives in TV. The store is located in Abingdon, MD about 1/2 off I-95 but they use Bel Air since that has 100,000 people and it is only 5 miles away.

We shopped at the Hunt Valley store almost weekly for 4 years. We miss it mightily. When Wegman's built their store in Johnson City NY (near Binghamton) back in the 80's it was at the time, the largest grocery store in the US. The one in Hunt Valley is the size of a 747 hanger and makes the JC store look like a Circle-K! God I miss Wegman's!!
