Chris Jump - Owner
Anvil Campground marks 65 years as a family-owned Williamsburg business
The Virginia Gazette
Rodrigo Arriaza Staff writer
Before Busch Gardens, Water Country USA and countless other Williamsburg businesses and
attractions first opened their doors, there was Anvil Campground.
In 1953, original owner Ralph Raymon Jump bought a soybean farm, where he lived in a small cinder block house with his wife and son, Jerry. As the story goes, a traveler approached the Jump family in the spring or summer of 1954 asking if he could park his camper overnight on their property.
"Ralph not only said yes, he also plugged an extension cord into a socket in his home and passed the cord out the window to the man, thus providing an electric hook-up for the first of countless campers to come," said Patricia Jump, wife of second-generation owner Jerry Jump. Thus, Anvil Campground was born.
The soybean fields were leveled by hand to make way for six original numbered campsites. And 65 years later, the four-acre campground is still running strong as a family-owned business.
"I'll never forget, they told my grandpa Ralph that he was never going to make any money because we were so far out of town," current owner Chris Jump said. "Three miles from Williamsburg, and back then that was way out of town, but now everything has grown around
The campground's name takes its inspiration from the family's history in blacksmithing. Chris said his grandfather and great-grandfather, James Riley Jump, contributed to the restoration of Colonial Williamsburg from 1929 to 1935 as blacksmiths, making original wrought iron works including tools, locks, hinges, shutter dogs and gates.
Through the years, the business was passed on from Ralph Jump to his son, Jerry, who ran the campground until his death in 2005.
"(The campground) is in your heart and soul. Jerry was 12 when he moved there, and he was there when the first camper came and stayed, so he grew up in it," Patricia Jump said. "He would get excited and enthusiastic and put all his energy and gather input from people to make his projects go."
Today, Anvil is home to around 60 campsites, four rental cabins and a number of modern amenities for campers. Patricia Jump said much has changed at the campground since she first began working there in 1974.
"The first laundromat was the washer and dryer in my house. They put the quarters in the palm of my hand instead of in a slot," she said. "I remember being really busy and having lots of campers. When we moved over, the idea was to add to it, improve it and make it better, and we did little by little."
Chris Jump took over the family business in 2005 at 23 years old after his father's death, and bought the campground outright in 2011.
Now 37, he said he's worked along with his brother Raymon, the camp's operations manager, to modernize Anvil by adding wifi, games and activities for families, and marina-style connectors at each campsite where RVs can easily connect to electricity, running water and cable.
"We've brought it up to camping in the present day," he said. "Now, there's so much money in
the industry and people spend so much money on their RVs, a lot of people have even sold their
houses to buy an RV and travel, so they really expect and they want really high-end things."
New additions for this year include new premium RV campsites with concrete pads, stone fire
pits, picnic tables, grills and swings.
Last November, Anvil Campground was selected as one of four campgrounds across the country
to be named among the National RV Parks Association's parks of the year, taking home the National Small RV Park of the Year award.
Chris and his mother Patricia credit the campground's success and longevity to the family's attention to customer service and changing with the times.
"What definitely differentiates us is just how we take care of people and make everyone feel like they're family," he said. "I've been here for almost 14 years and it's been in the family for a long time, so we just take the feedback and adapt, because we're just trying to make them happy, so it's just been a gradual thing."
Chris Jump says he hopes to pass the family business onto his two young sons one day, if they're interested.
"In an ideal world, if one of my sons would like it — I want them to do whatever they want to do, but you just never know if they'll be willing and able to do it," he said. "It's a hard transition, but it just worked out for us, and after loads of work, here we are."

Roughin' It in Williamsburg: Local Camping and Glamping Scene
The Local Scoop Magazine
September 10, 2019
As autumn's cooler temps descend, why not take the kids on an overnight camping trip? Whether camping in a tent, glamping in your well-appointed RV, or "roughing it" in an Amish-made wooden cabin, there's a camping staycation in greaterWilliamsburg just for you.
Picturesque Chickahominy Riverfront Park is one of James City County's popular parks. It is located on Route 5 where the Chickahominy River meets Gordon's Creek. According to Erik Lavender, park coordinator, Chickahominy Riverfront Park is Capital Trail's only campground, something he dubbed "a great advantage for us."
There is a 300-foot fishing pier and a boat ramp with kayaks and canoes available for rent. Other amenities include a pool, complete with a splash pad for the kids, and a playground.
The park offers everything from tent sites to full RV hookups. There are no cabins. Want to unplug and lose yourself in nature? You'll be delighted to learn there is no Wi-Fi or cable.
"We are open year-round, and we offer a reduced rate for residents of Williamsburg and James City County," Lavender said.
Located a stone's throw from the Croaker Library, American Heritage RV Park sits on 70 acres of well-tended, manicured green meadows and woodlands. With hiking and nature trails, mini golf, a basketball court, volleyball and a horseshoe pit there are many activities for folks of all ages.
Rachel Rhoads, owner, says American Heritage is more of a glamping park. "We have Wi-Fi and cable and we offer full-service everything. Premium sites include fire pits, umbrella and patio dining sets or picnic tables."
She is particularly proud of the property's beauty and grounds. "I think the grounds are what sets us apart, but we're also known for peace and quiet, even when we're full. For some of our guests, this is their first camping experience. It's so gratifying to see them enjoying that outdoor experience."
There are several sites for tents, but the cabins and cottages are always popular.
Anvil Campground is closer into town within easy walking distance to Waller Mill Park. Owner Chris Jump lives with his family in a home located on the property.
Having recently won the Small Park of the Year award from the National RV Parks Association and the Small Business of the Year from the Greater Williamsburg Chamber and Tourism Alliance, Anvil is like a small neighborhood unto itself.
"We are so family oriented here, and friendly," Jump said. "I think that's what we're known for."
Anvil offers 60 campsites, including fully-equipped cabins and cottages. "Even the tent sites have cable, Wi-Fi, electric and water. We offer Premium Patio sites that have new concrete pads, stone fire pits, recycled plastic ADA picnic tables, grills; and each site has swings to relax in, right in front of your new stone fire pits!"
"We tend to attract really nice, good people. Our guests are typically families and retirees."

Anvil Campground: 65 Years of Historic Virginia Excursions
Good Sam Camping

Virginia camping at its best: Anvil Campground in Williamsburg, Virginia, observes 65 years of forging great vacation experiences for guests visiting the Historic Triangle region.
Founded in 1954 by Ralph Raymon Jump on the peninsula between the James and York rivers, Anvil Campground puts travelers in proximity to popular Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown and Busch Gardens.
The big 65th milestone isn't the only reason to party. Anvil Campground won the Park of the Year Award (Small category) by the National Association of RV Parks and Campgrounds (ARVC) in November of 2018. ARVC bestows the "small" park honor on parks with 100 or fewer sites (Anvil has 60 sites, 48 of which are full-hookup). More than 3,000 parks are eligible to receive one of ARVC's four park honors.
Anvil also enjoys the distinction of being a top-rated
Good Sam Park for the last three years and is the
second-highest-rated park in Virginia. The
Williamsburg campground has been a
Good Sam Park for 35 years.
New amenities along with a dog run at one
of the park's premium sites.
Anvil Always Improves
Despite the recent honors, the park shows no
intention of resting on its laurels as it enters its
65th season. In fact, Anvil recently completed
several major upgrades.
"Every year, we have continued to improve,"
says owner Chris Jump, grandson of founder Ralph.
The renovations include major upgrades to its eight
premium sites, including fire pits, swing sets and new concrete pads. Also added are ADA-compliant
recycled plastic picnic tables. In another recent improvement, Anvil outfitted every site with state-of-the-art utility hookups, with 50/30/20-amp electricity.
The utility posts include an amber light for nighttime connecting and hooks to hold an extra water hose.
Anvil's Historic Ties
The constant striving to upgrade is consistent with the vision of Chris's grandfather. Ralph Jump built the campground's success by anticipating the needs of campers.
"We're the only campground actually in town," says Chris. "They told my grandpa he would never make any money because he is so far out of town. But now, the town has grown up around us. We're right in the middle of things."
Chris took the reigns of the RV park in 2005 after the passing of his father, Jerry Howard Jump. Jerry had worked with Ralph in clearing the soybean field that would eventually become the campground.
Nowadays, Anvil makes the most out of its geography. An hourly shuttle whisks guests from the RV park to some of the region's top attractions, including Colonial Williamsburg (3 miles away), Busch Gardens, Water Country USA and Historic Jamestowne.
Jerry Howard Jump
The Jump's family connection to Colonial Williamsburg
goes far beyond a shuttle ride. Between 1929 and 1935,
the family's great grandfather, a master blacksmith,
contributed to the renovation of Williamsburg. He made much of the original
wrought-iron work, fabricating tools, locks, hinges,
gates and more.
Today, many of the guests stay at the park while visiting
the 300-acre living history museum, in which costumed
performers reenact life in Revolutionary-era America.
Back at the campground, the original anvil used for
the job is on display at the general store.
Rides, Slides and Wildlife
Travelers who prefer wild rides to history can find lots of thrills at Busch Gardens. Hop on a coaster like the Loch Ness Monster, dine in European-themed restaurants or enjoy fun family-friendly shows and live entertainment throughout the year
Not far away is Water Country USA, Virginia's largest waterpark at 43 acres. Cool off during hot summer days by racing down over 40 rides and attractions. Kids can get their hearts racing on exhilarating water rides like the Colossal Curl mega-slide, while adults can float along the lazy river or relax in the gigantic wave pool.
Historic Jamestowne, located on the James River, sends visitors back to the 1600s with its Colonial fort and amazing archeological sites. The nearby James River is a great place to launch a kayak or cast a fishing pole, and the same goes for the York River, which runs parallel to the north.
About two miles from the campground, the 360-acre Waller Mill Reservoir offers fishing, boating and kayaking adventures. Catch striped and largemouth bass, black crappie, bluegill and catfish. A paved trail to the park lies just 200 yards from Anvil Campground. Guests can hike and bike this pathway for fun and fitness.
Virginia Camping: A Family Affair
After a busy day of exploring, guests can keep the good times rolling back at Anvil Campground. Time your visit for the big 65th Birthday Weekend Celebration, May 10-12. The event will feature a cookout and live music. Participate in activities and games for campers of all ages. You can also commemorate your visit by visiting the general store for Anvil-related gifts.
In November, the campground celebrates its annual Jamboree, with more fun and games. Let your next RV vacation shape up at Anvil Campground.

Anvil Campground: 61 Years Strong
In 1954, Ike was in the White House, Greater Williamsburg had a population of 25,000, and the recreational vehicle industry was in its infancy. In 1954, Ralph Jump and his son, Jerry Jump leveled a soybean field approximately 3 miles from the center of Williamsburg to create a trailer court. Friends told him he would go broke because he was too far from town.
Sixty-one years and two generations later, the Anvil Campground is a thriving business in the hands of owner Chris Jump and his brother, operations manager Raymon. The meticulous grounds belie the enthusiasm of the entire Jump family for their chosen business, with a focus on strong customer service and continual grounds and infrastructure improvement.
Anvil Campground gets its name from the Jump family's proud connection with the Colonial Williamsburg restoration. In the late 1920's as the restoration began to take shape, John D. Rockefeller canvassed the country for talented artisans and tradespeople to take on the task of authentically recreating the colonial town. Blacksmith James Riley Jump of Michigan, great grandfather of Chris and Raymon, was invited to participate, and moved his family to Williamsburg to take on the task. James and son Ralph made much of the ironwork used in the original restoration.
Under the leadership of Ralph, succeeded by son Jerry and wife Patricia, and now Chris, the campground has weathered many storms, from the gas crisis of the '70's to economic downturns to literal floods, hurricanes and ice storms. The family has always bounced back. Today, Chris cannot imagine a better way to earn his living. "I love what I do," says Chris, "so the challenges are all good."
Chris took over the family business after his father Jerry passed away in 2005, and bought it outright in 2011. He has put his undergraduate training in business to great use, modernizing the internal management of the business and investing in infrastructure improvements from WiFi to recreation facilities to landscaping and utilities. Chris is proud of the campground's top rankings
on travel sites TripAdvisor and Good Sam Park (a standard in the camping industry) and continues to be driven by the metrics that got them there: a friendly staff, high-end amenities, cleanliness, lush landscaping and a convenient location.
Chris also appreciates professional guidance when he needs it. After taking on the business, he turned to Middle Peninsula for help with his commercial insurance, health insurance, and financial planning. Says Chris, "I inherited a different agency. I didn't even know the agent -- just got the annual bill. Middle Peninsula is a one-stop resource for me and they are all very responsive. I am very happy with the relationship."
As Memorial Day weekend dawns, the Jump family anticipates a good summer season. The campground's sixty sites, including eleven tent sites and two cottages, are in top shape and bookings are strong. The family is also on the precipice of a new era, as Chris and his wife Cielomar are expecting their first child any day. Middle Peninsula Insurance and Financial Services is proud to support this Williamsburg gem.

Anvil Campground
We were fortunate to find a family-owned campground in the middle of Williamsburg whose owners have something to say about it. The history of Anvil Campground goes back to 1954. The grandfather and great grandfather of this family were blacksmiths, who helped restore Williamsburg with their iron works, thus the symbol of the anvil was born. Small, quaint and equipped with swings, a pool (closed for the season) and an air hockey table, all of us were content on site. We were truly close to everything — including the mostly gently rolling train and tracks — making our navigation easy and fun. Best of all, the staff at Anvil Campground were enormously gracious and helpful. They welcomed us to the Southeast with our first "y'all" and lots of information, including great places for trick-or-treating. We felt at home.

Member Spotlight: Chris Jump
Sixty years of economic flux, countless hurricanes, multiple gas crises, a 100-year flood and an ice storm have never stopped four generations of Jump family members or their business – Anvil Campground. Today, Anvil Campground is 60-years-old and is owned by Chris Jump, one of the middle children of the newest generation of Jump family members.
And their story is a great one. The Jumps are here because of John D. Rockefeller and his movement to bring artisans from across the country, inviting them to come and restore Williamsburg to its original authenticity. James Riley Jump, great great grandfather to Chris and Ralph Jump, Chris's grandfather both were blacksmiths and made the original wrought iron work used in Colonial Williamsburg's restoration. Their work included crafting tools, locks, hinges, shutter dogs, gates and anything else needed.
The Jump family is proud of its past and present, which is evidenced by the blacksmith display in the campground's General Store complete with the original anvil used to make all the original items - and in the meticulously clean grounds and sophisticated, first-class amenities on the grounds.
"I was told that the campground was never going to be what it is today," Chris said. "But I've always been someone to look ahead. I was starting to see in my head what I wanted this to be. I always had faith and trust that it could be done." Anvil Campground, located at 5243 Mooretown Road, started out as a soybean field. The land was leveled by hand, an 800-square-foot cinderblock house was built – the Jump family's home in 1954 – along with nine campsites. Chris's dad, Jerry, and his mother, Patricia, increased the campground's capacity to 33 camping sites, which used to be a mix of permanent and rental sites. The campground now boasts two cottages and 60 full-time campsites, some large enough to hold the rolling million-dollar homes.
The campground now has a few tent sites, standard sites, complete sites and premium sites with 30/50 amp electric capability along with wifi and cable. Anvil was a 2013 winner of a "Certificate of Excellence" on Trip Advisor complete with shuttle services to all the major attractions.
At its 60th anniversary, Anvil is currently one of the highest rated campgrounds in the nation. "That's pretty darn good for coming from a soybean field," Chris chuckled.
Today, Chris runs the campground with his brother Raymon, who is the Operations Manager. Even Ray admits: "I knew we could always keep improving, but I never imagined the campground looking the way it does today with all the amenities it has."
Chris and Raymon are very clear about who does what with the business. Chris handles the financial end of things, the marketing, the payroll – anything to do with paper, Chris said. Ray handles everything with the grounds. "We're really ying and yang," Chris said.
Listening to the brothers speak of by-gone years when they were boys makes even the most hardened heart wistful. They speak of past campground promotions of free Friday night cookouts where they would go crabbing with their dad to have crabs for guests that evening. They speak of the thousands of times they climbed each and every tree on the campground's property – trees all planted by their family.
Chris recalled 2005, the year his father died. He was living in Richmond having just completed his Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from VCU. He moved back home to take care of the family business. After moving the company's bookkeeping from paper to computer, redesigning sites and landscaping, adding the 30/50 amp utility pedestals, Chris decided it was time to buy the business and go all in. In 2011, Chris took the plunge and became owner.
During the last seven years, Chris has seen the highest grossing years in the 60-year history of the campground, and 2014 is looking to surpass 2013 in revenue, which was already the second-highest grossing year ever.
As an Alliance member, Chris is participating in the "All in for August" summer promotion. "As part of that package, we're offering 25% off the cottages here. We've seen our reservations for the cottages increase by 20 percent in only a 30-day span just from that promotion."
In an effort to assure a successful summer season the Alliance and the Williamsburg Area Destination Marketing Committee created the "All in for August" campaign, which offered free participation. The promotion "has definitely increased our marketing reach," Chris said. Because Chris handles the website, he sees the benefit of having the Alliance as a referring organization. "The VisitWilliamsburg.com site is one of the biggest drivers to my website." As an Alliance member, Chris highly recommends that other small businesses join. "You can do things on your own, but to be part of such a powerful organization with a sole mission of generating more money for you and the community, why wouldn't you join it? They will drive more potential customers to your doorstep. We definitely reap the benefit, which is way more than what we pay in membership fees."

Williamsburg, Virginia's Anvil Campground was a
soybean field back in 1954 when a man asked the
owner if he could park his truck on the property
for the night. That incident planted the seed of an
idea in the mind of Grandpa Jump, and be the end
of the year he had six campsites. As blacksmiths
for Colonial Williamsburg, Jump and his father
knew a thing or two about striking while the iron
is hot. Today their descendants run the aptly named
Anvil Campground, now celebrating its 60th year.

A Solid Choice in Camping at Anvil Campground
Tom Cervenak, Marketing Manager, Virginia State Parks
In the fall of 2011 Virginia State Parks became proud members of the Virginia Campground Association, working as a team in promoting camping in Virginia. This is a regular series of our feature private campground of the month on our friends with VCA.
Just the name of Anvil Campground gives a sense of a strong powerful place. I found out how true this was during a recent tour of the facilities with brothers Chris and Ray Jump. The campground has been operated by their family, now the third generation, since 1954. They offer excellent customer service and a great place to camp. The campground is named as a tribute to the early history of the family. Their great-grandfather and grandfather both produced all the wrought iron work for the reconstruction and renovation of Historic Colonial Williamsburg in the early 1930's, much of which you still can see today. In the general store is the original anvil they used and some of their crafts, which make up a mini museum.
Today, the campground forges rich memories with so much to do during your stay and in the heart of vacation paradise. Its' location makes it the closest campground to all of the Williamsburg attractions. For a nominal fee, you can catch a ride on the shuttle service to all major attractions, including, Busch Gardens, Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown Settlement, Yorktown Battlefield and Water Country USA, just to name a few. It may, however, be hard to tear yourself away from all the activities at the campground to visit these attractions. The campground has both premium and standard sites. Premium sites have 50 amp service and cable television and sewer hookups. The campground has Wi-Fi service, a swimming pool, 3 playgrounds, a basketball court, horseshoe pits and an arcade. The campground is open year round, making it ideal for a visit to the area during the upcoming Holiday season and shopping at the many outlets in the area.
If you want a step up from camping, try either the Blacksmith or Journeyman Cottages. Each of them sleep up to 6 people, are fully furnished with cable televisions, AC/Heating units, a fully equipped kitchen and linens are provided for you. In addition the Blacksmith Cottage also has a wood burning fireplace and a covered porch with swing for a relaxing stay. Pets up to 50lbs. are welcomed for a small fee, please check ahead for the rules and regulations so you can bring your best friend.
After a stroll through this 4 acre campground, it was easy to see why it is rated year in and year out as one of the top campgrounds in the U.S. and Canada by Trailer Life Directory. As nice as the facilities were, there was much more to the reason this is such a special place, the Jump Family. Hanging out with Chris and Ray felt like being with old friends. It came across how much they care about their customers and how proud they are of their heritage. I noticed the odd speed limit of 3.2 MPH and asked them about it. Again, in a tribute to a member of their family, it was the number their father wore on his football jersey. What a class act! So the next time you have plans to visit the Williamsburg area, consider a stay at Anvil Campground, it's a solid choice.

July-August 2012 - Good Sam Park Life (
Like Father, Like Son
After learning the campground business from his dad,
Chris Jump keeps family traditions alive in Williamsburg, Virginia
By Natalie Miller-Moore
Did your childhood involve a general store in the front yard and neighbors who moved every week? Well, it did for Chris Jump, who grew up at Anvil Campground, a Good Sam Park in Williamsburg, Virginia. Jump's now the owner and all those years of living in a house on the campground property helped make him friendly and approachable.
Anvil Campground is a family business, run for several generations by the Jump family. The site was a soybean field in 1954 when a man driving a truck asked to park on the property for the night. Grandpa Jump got the idea for a campground, and it started with six sites. Today there are 60 sites as well as two cottages, named Journeyman and Blacksmith, a tribute to family history. Great Grandpa Jump was a blacksmith for Colonial Williamsburg, and his anvil sits in the campground' general store.
Jump, 30, has been the owner since 2005 when his father passed away. He values what he learned from his dad and tries to follow the same work ethic. "We might be hooking up RVs at midnight for people who just arrived, or people might be knocking on my door for a new Internet code," says Jump. "But it's something we don't mind doing because we take pride in taking care of our customers."
As kids, Jump and his brother and sisters worked at the check-in desk, cut the grass and helped out at the Friday cookouts. "I would cook the hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill, and we had a lemonade stand," he recalls. "While other kids went to the beach, we worked on weekends doing whatever outside maintenance was needed."
Despite all the hard work, Jump and his siblings clearly revere their father's memory. In fact, the speed limit in the campground is a tribute to their dad. His football jersey number was 32, so it's 3.2 miles per hour.
Jump says that "camping" at his Good Sam Park mainly means RVs = about 95 percent. "People used to come with pop-ups and truck campers. "He says, but now it's mostly larger RVs, especially for people who come to Williamsburg as tourists. "So we had to adjust," he says. "We added cable and Wi-Fi and made the sites wider."
Today the campground has just 11 tents sites out of 60, and Jump says that the clientele is mainly families and retired people, not a partying crowd at all. "People are coming for the convenience of the location, not the type of camping you'd find in a national park. There's Colonial Williamsburg and Busch Gardens, Jamestown, Yorktown, and Water Country," he says. "It's actually pretty quiet during the day because people are off seeing the sights."
Jump and his brother, Ray, the campground's manager, like to share their local expertise. "We try to help everyone and usually have a personal chat about what they'd like to do," says Jump. "We are lucky to live somewhere with so many things to do and things to see. I love it."
Another thing he loves is meeting people from all over. Jump says that Canadians do a lot of camping, and Europeans often come and rent RVs to see the United States via the highways. They've even had guest from Australia and South Africa. "There are people from all over the world, with different stories, personalities, politics, opinions, and perspectives on world events," he says.
Like many people in the tourism industry, Jump's life ebbs and flows with the travel season. In the winter, it's mainly spent making improvements. But in the summer, he's busy from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
Jump even scheduled his wedding after the busy summer season. He's getting married this September. He and his fiancée won't be RVing on that trip, but they look forward to meeting more fellow travelers in the future at Anvil Campground.

Campground Life
By Natalie Miller-Moore
Did your childhood involve a general store in the front yard, a pool in your yard that you shared with a few dozen other folks and neighbors who moved once a week?
Well, it did for Chris Jump, who grew up at the Anvil Campground. He's now the owner and all those years of living in a house on the campground property gave him an exceptionally interesting childhood here in Williamsburg.
"It was a unique place to grow up," he says. "We had no neighbors, but actually the neighbors changed every few days," as people came and went from the campground. Having lots of new friends every week made Chris friendly and approachable
The Anvil Campground is on a triangle of land between the railroad tracks and Mooretown Road. It's a family business, run for several generations by the Jump family. The site of the campground used to be a soybean field until 1954 when a man driving a truck asked to park on the property for the night. Grandpa Jump got the idea for a campground and it started with six sites. Today there are 60 sites as well as two cottages, named "Journeyman" and "Blacksmith," a tribute to family history. Great Grandpa Jump was a blacksmith for Colonial Williamsburg, and his anvil (that the campground was named for) still sits in the general store of the campground.
Today, brothers Chris and Ray (the manager) keep it running smoothly and try to stay ahead of trends in camping and local tourism. Chris, 30, has been the owner of the campground since 2005 when his father passed away. He values what he learned from his Dad and tries to follow that same work ethic as he runs the campground
"He taught us that it was hard work, and sometimes you work all the time because in a small business like this, you could be called on at any time. We might be hooking up RVs at midnight for people who just arrived or people might be knocking on my door for a new Internet code. But it's something we don't mind doing because we take pride in taking care of our customers," he says.
Chris, his brother and sisters all were involved in the day-to-day tasks of the campground as kids. They worked at the check-in desk, cut the grass and helped out with the Friday cookouts. "I would cook the hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill and we had a lemonade stand," he says. They continue to have events throughout the year for Cinco de Mayo, weekends for Race Fans and "Wizard's World" for kids.
Owning a campground is fun and a lot of hard work. Chris said that his dad was the role model for them growing up. "Whatever he did, you did. While other kids went to the beach, we worked on weekends doing whatever outside maintenance was needed," he says.
Despite making them work hard, Chris and his siblings clearly revere their father's memory. In fact, the speed limit in the campground is a tribute to their dad - his football jersey number was 32. So it's 3.2 mph - Just the right speed for a lumbering RV on the curved roads of Anvil Campground.
Chris says that modern "camping" at their site mainly means RVs – about 95%. "People used to come with pop ups and truck campers but now it's mostly RVs, especially for people who want to come to Williamsburg as tourists. So we had to adjust, we added cable and WI-FI and made the sites wider."
Today the campground has just 11 tent sites out of 60, and Chris said that the clientele is mainly families and retired people, not a partying crowd at all. Chris attributes that to all of the attractions in Williamsburg, the history and the theme parks.
"People are coming for the convenience of the location, not the type of camping you'd find in a national park. There's CW and Busch Gardens, Jamestown, Yorktown and Water Country. It's actually pretty quiet during the day because people are off seeing the sights," he says
Chris and Ray also like to share their local expertise. "We try to help everyone, and usually have a personal chat about what they'd like to do," Chris says. "We are lucky to live somewhere with so many things to do and things to see. I love it."
Another thing he loves is meeting people from all over. Chris says that Canadians do a lot of camping, and that Europeans often come to the United States and rent RVs to see the US via the highways. They've even had guests from Australia and South Africa.
"There are people from all over the world, with different stories, personalities, politics, opinions, perspectives on world events. And we are lucky to get to meet them," he says.
Another advantage to running a tourist-oriented business like the campground? They get to see all kinds of cool pets that people can travel with in their RVs. Chris recounted a story about a counting Yellow Lab who could bark the number you said and even do a little addition. Besides dogs, they've seen people walking their cats on leashes and even a rescued squirrel perched on a man's shoulder. Some other interesting things he's seen include luxury RVs with hot tubs and fireplaces, and he met a man on a quest to visit all the Hooter's restaurants in the country.
Over the years, Chris has seen Williamsburg change. Even Mooretown Road, which was just a dirt road with a dead end in his lifetime, is now a busy thoroughfare. "Williamsburg seems busier, but there's also more convenience," he says.
Like many people in the local tourism industry, Chris' life ebbs and flows with the high travel seasons. In the winter, it's mainly improving sites. But in the summer, he's busy from Memorial Day to Labor Day with guests.
In fact, Chris even scheduled his wedding after the busy summer season. He's getting married in Puerto Rico this September. He met his fiancée, Cielomar, a marine biologist at VIMS, at a seafood festival in Gloucester four years ago. They are both looking forward to their beach wedding. They will not be camping or RVing on that trip but they look forward to meeting more fellow travelers in the future at the Anvil Campground.

My Life as a Realtor ~
Day 190:
Wednesday! Stopped by the office, then a trip to the bank and A&P in Brewster, NY. I couldn't believe how many seagulls there was in the parking lot…
Then Ma and I grabbed some lunch and it was back home to get some work done before my meeting with Network for Free. This evening, we had a Speed Networking event in Danbury, CT. We grouped into two's – had a few minutes to exchange business cards and discuss what we did. I met a fellow Realtor, some Tech and Marketing people, an Antique Restorations person and many more! During this time, we were taken aside and given a few minutes to shoot a video with Mike Evans – Digital Video Productions – and discuss what we do and offer to the public. I can't wait to see mine to see if what I asked for was done – take 10 pounds and 10 years off my appearance – LOL!

My Life as a Realtor – Day 120
My Life as a Realtor ~
Day 120:
It's Friday – and I have to go buy my Turkeys – notice Turkey is plural – I will be roasting 2 medium-sized Turkeys – carving one and leaving the other as my table decor – at least until it's needed.
Stop n Shop in Danbury has Butterball Turkeys – frozen for .89 cents per pound – and fresh for $1.39 per pound – that is where I will be purchasing them.
In the middle of work, I was talking to my youngest daughter, Sara. How I got into "It's Raining Men" by the Weather Girls started – I have no idea. Sara didn't recognize the song, especially since I was trying to sing it and being that she is only 16 and this song and video was from 1984 – 25 years ago – so to You Tube we went and boy did we have fun watching this music video!
Then it was back to work – dinner and time to get ready for Bunco with the Bunco Babes! Right after eating and getting ready to leave for our monthly game, our power went out – my entire block had a black out! Only 3 kids were home and Hubby-Hub was working through the night. So, we lit some candles, listened to some music and told some ghost stories! Then I left for Bunco – my sister picked me up and we enjoyed our evening.

Favorite Music & Songs – David Cassidy – "I Think I Love You"
The other day my daughter Sara was talking about different things and blurted "I think I love you". Of course I couldn't help myself, and started to sing David Cassidy's "I Think I Love You" hit from the 70's. I told Sara that when my sister was about her age, she had a poster of David Cassidy, and every night she would kiss him good night. This peeked Sara's interest, so we Googled him and I had fun going back in time and Sara totally agreed that he was hot!

Maison 140 Beverly Hills
About the Hotel
Why We Love This Hotel

- Rodeo Drive -- "the famous three-block ribbon of style" (Lonely Planet) -- is a 10-minute walk from the hotel
- Facilities include a cocktail lounge and a small gym -- guests also get free use of the pool at the nearby sister property, the Mosaic Hotel
Tucked away in a quiet street just off Wilshire Boulevard, this 1930s mansion was once the home of Dorothy and Lillian Gish, silent-film stars from Hollywood's Golden Age. Now converted into a boutique hotel and renamed Maison 140 Beverly hills, the hotel is a 10-minute walk from Rodeo Drive's designer shops and less than 15 minutes' drive from Santa Monica and Venice beaches.
Somewhere between a Parisian salon and a Prohibition-era speakeasy, Bar Noir is an intimate spot for coffee and French pastries in the morning or cocktails after dark. The hotel also has a small fitness room (free for guests) and, while there is no pool on site, guests can visit a nearby sister property (the Mosaic Hotel, located two minutes' walk away) for a swim.
While the building has a colonial-style white facade, the interiors are striking with ebony lacquer furnishings, red wallpaper and oversized crystal chandeliers inspired by Paris and the Far East. The bold colour scheme is present in all 44 guest rooms. Wi-Fi is free.

Calendaring: Exchange can publish to ICS, defaults to insecure
ICS (iCal) is a file format for calendars. Most calendaring software uses it. For example, you can import / export it to Google Calendar. If you have a Google Calendar, you can "publish" your calendar to an ICS file, so you can use it with other software like Mozilla Calendar or web services.
Microsoft Exchange 2010 can also publish calendars to ICS. Which is great, because Exchange and Outlook offer more advanced features for heavyweight calendar users. Like using rich text and images for your descriptions, and adding file attachments. Steve Goodman has written a fine manual on how to enable iCal Calendar Sharing with Exchange 2010 SP1 (recommended reading).
Here I will not give the depressing account of my troubles installing Windows 2008 and Exchange. If you are used to installing Linux servers, prepare a few days instead of a few hours. Even after you have installed everything, after numerous reboots and fixes, buggy graphical config tools and a not-so-grown-up command line, you still have work to do. Like minding security.
If you publish your calendar to ICS, then you will receive an URL which is [1] plain HTTP, while it should default to HTTPS, and [2] not protected by a password.
The first problem can be solved by your firewall – do not allow normal http (80) traffic to your Exchange server. Instruct your users about the ICS URL; they have to replace http by https.
The second problem requires you to start the ISS Manager. Go to the owa/Calendar folder. Disallow the Anonymous access, and allow the Digest access. See the screenshot below.

Everyone loves a good daily dose of chocolate. Chocolate boosts our mood, satisfies our palate and is probably one of the most popular treats on the planet. In This Is Your Brain on Chocolate we discussed study findings that showed that eating chocolate weekly could boost cognitive function. A new study now suggests that eating dark chocolate as part of your exercise performance diet may help to improve endurance. Win-win!
Cocoa boosts healthAmericans love to indulge, sometimes enjoying too many treats too often that are high in unhealthy fat, added sugars and sodium. Finding a healthier treat that tastes good, satisfies a sweet tooth, and provides a health benefit is a slam dunk. Previous studies have looked at chocolate's impact on the heart and the brain. Chocolate contains** cocoa flavonols** which have been shown to have positive health benefits. The key seems to lie in the fact that these cocoa byproducts are largely indigestible. When gut microbes break down cocoa, producing flavonol-containing metabolites, they largely resist further digestion and enter the bloodstream. In the case of heart risk, these metabolites reduce inflammation. Another bonus is that after the body digests dark chocolate, colonies of good bacteria,** lactobacillus**, increase in number, while less desirable microbes,** staphylococcus**, reduce in number.
How chocolate boosts exercise enduranceCocoa contains** epicatechins**, which are plant nutrients that have the ability to instigate the release of nitric oxide by cells that line blood vessels. Nitric oxide causes vasodilatation or further opening of blood vessels, which helps to improve blood flow in both veins and arteries. This translates into improved cardiac function. Nitric oxide also primes muscle cells to utilize more circulating blood sugar, which boosts energy. That in turn helps more oxygen utilization by cells.
Athletes can profoundly benefit from the boost provided by nitric oxide release. It's no secret that in the world of athletic performance nutrition, there are supplements that claim to enhance nitric oxide production, and beetroot juice is also popular because it contains nitrates. Some athletes believe in the power of the supplements and beetroot juice to boost and enhance endurance, though the research is not clear.
Small study of cyclists "on" chocolate
Eight recreational cyclists had baseline testing in a lab to determine fitness levels and oxygen uptake during moderate level efforts and fast sprints on stationary bicycles. Then, half the group added a small serving of dark chocolate (Dove brand) to their daily diets, by replacing one standard dessert with a specific serving of the dark chocolate (about 1.4 ounces). The control group ate white chocolate which does not have significant levels of epicatechins. The first round of the chocolate project lasted two weeks. Lab tests were repeated and then the groups switched their chocolate consumption and the study was continued for another two weeks. At the end of the second round, lab tests were repeated.
Study results
All the cyclists showed improved performance after the two weeks of consuming the dark chocolate, versus the baseline and white chocolate consumption results. Specifically, there was reduced oxygen consumption after the two weeks of consuming dark chocolate and more distance was covered during the sprints, showing anaerobic capacity was enhanced. Nitric oxide levels were not measured but the researchers did conclude that the link between enhanced performance and dark chocolate was clear.
Chocolate does a body good—and training better
Eat a treat and get a boost to your exercise effort? It doesn't get better than that! It is important to point out that the ideal dosage of chocolate for exercise benefits is not clear and eating too much chocolate for health benefits is not a good idea for your weight or waistline. Epicatechin levels can also vary between chocolate bars. Still, most experts agree that a small dose of very dark chocolate daily may clearly provide health benefits and is a preferable dessert compared to the candy and processed bake goods we typically choose. Just remember to select very dark chocolate, avoid those with significant amounts of added sugars, and monitor portion size and calories per serving. -exercise/cf/slideshows/benefits-eating-spicy-foods)

If I had to pick a favourite cake flavour, I don't think I could. But the cake that I crave most often is definitely chocolate. Specifically a dark, intensely chocolatey chocolate cake with a not-too-sweet ganache topping….

Day 112. 80km. Meghri – JolfaPosted: July 3, 2015 in Armenia, Cycling, Iran
Tags: Armenia, Cycling, Iran, Jolfa, Meghri
We are in Iran! Yay!!! Today we cycled along the most amazing valley. Steep, barren mountains rising vertically upwards towards the heavens. Snow-capped mountains in the distance. And it is warmer. We have crossed into a new world.
The valley started like a deep chasm with cliff-faces rising up on both sides. Slowly, it opened out. Grassy plains, poppies swaying in the (head) wind, and massive peaks looming behind. We stopped often for photos, and rejoiced the warmer weather.
Day 111. 77km. Kapan – MeghriPosted: June 30, 2015 in Armenia, Cycling
Tags: Armenia, Cycling, Kapan, Meghri
Proud. We are looking at the mountains of Iran, and we have cycled here over the Caucasus. Two years ago this was a dream. Now it is reality, and, cycling up a 12% slope in the snow and hail I laughed. I am here. Now.
Today was not a day of admiring the scenery. It was hidden behind the cloud. Today was a day to climb from 800m to 2535m and down the other side to 600m. And the climb was going to be steep. My music cocooned me in a sphere of self-contemplation. Music that has accompanied me while preparing this trip.
While cycling in the arctic in northern Sweden, I was listening to 'Alive' by Krewella, and a shiver ran down my spine. Here I am cycling to the North Cape in Norway, through the tundra, and I had got there by bike. This trip was amazing, and, my next trip is going to be even more amazing. I was going to cycle back home. I cried with joy. I had made up my mind.
The planning of the trip took two years, and a lot of music accompanied me. My three months for Philips in Boston was a time where the trip planning took concrete form. My playlist today was full of those numbers.
'Under Control' by Calvin Harris and 'Shewolf' by David Guetta remind me of the final phases of planning in Eindhoven. And, 'Let's Go', by Calvin Harris is just raw energy. Man, I was happy, rounding every hairpin bend, passing piled up snow, watching the snow turn from being flaky to consisting of small pellet-like balls. And then I watched the hail. I was here, now, doing what I had chosen to do, and what I love to do.
Coming down, the hail and snow turned to rain, and then cleared. The last kilometres into Meghri had good visibility, and we saw some beautiful mountain landscape.
We even ran into a couple of Dutch touring cyclists – a rare sight in these parts.
Oh. I lost my voice today. I feel fine, but sound awful. I'm sure I'll be fine tomorrow, when we enter Iran. We're so excited!
Day 110. 67km. Goris – KapanPosted: June 27, 2015 in Armenia, Cycling
Tags: Armenia, Cycling, Goris, Kapan
After a one-day hibernation in Goris due to total lack of energy and a thumping headache, James and I cycled through the cloud to Kapan. We have heard the road is very beautiful. Well, we saw the road (and other objects) within a circumference of 20m of our humble selves before arriving damp and cold in Kapan.
Today was good. I felt strong after my bear-like long sleep from 8pm through to daylight, some forays out of the room during the day, and another long night's sleep. Today there was no wind, which made the steep climb a breeze (hehe). We climbed over the Vorotan Pass – the name makes me think of Mordor from Lord of the Rings. We didn't see any hint of Mordor, there were no orcs, and no black riders. We didn't see a hint of anything at all.
In the valley we could see, so I took a photo of James cycling along.
Actually, we did see hints of some things. James and I felt at home – we were riding towards the Crazy Club.
And the Velcome Disco seemed very velcoming.
Arriving in Kapan we ran into another cyclist from Australia, cycling from India to Istanbul. He was bursting for an inner tube, and James could oblige. We will be meeting up with him shortly for a pre-Anzac day dinner.
Day 109. 38km. Shaki – GorisPosted: June 24, 2015 in Armenia, Cycling
Tags: Armenia, Cycling, Goris, Shaki
I slept 11 hours and still felt tired and unmotivated. Am I developing a cold? Our destination today was strategically near, in a nice town, ready for the last two mountain slog days in Armenia. A battle through the roadworks and wind brought us to Goris where we went on a nice wander in the sun.
The road made its way up a mini-pass of 2200m (starting at 1800m) through a lot of roadworks. I realised I was not myself when I found myself getting very irritated at trucks booming their horns directly behind me, instructing me to move off in into the roadside sludge so they can pass. This is nothing new, but, it irritated me today.
I was so glad to roll down the hill into a beautiful valley, with the cute town of Goris nestled at the bottom. The sun came out, and James and I had a wander around, enjoying our half-day off.
Day 108. 84km. Getap – ShakiPosted: June 21, 2015 in Armenia, Cycling
Tags: Armenia, Cycling, Getap, Shaki
With a 1300m climb on the agenda today, and rain forecast for mid-afternoon, James and I left in the (surprising) sun and (surprising) tailwind up a river gorge. The rain and cold hit at the pass, after which we cycled through the familiar high altitude lunar landscape to our warm and snug abode in Shaki.
Easy does it. The road climbs and climbs. The skies were grey and it was a bit hazy, not making for great photos. Still, it was a pleasant cycle.
Day 107. 130km. Sevan – GetapPosted: June 18, 2015 in Armenia, Cycling
Tags: Armenia, Cycling, Getap, Sevan
Lake Sevan has an arctic feel. With the sun out, we had amazing views of the lake, the barren land, the snow-capped mountains and rusted paraphernalia. Today we had sun, gale-force wind (side and headwind), rain, snow, hail, thunder and lightening. And a 1300m drop into the most amazing valley. Cool!
The wind was ferocious – mostly a side-wind along the lake. It added to the arctic, deserted feel of the lake. We stopped numerous times for photos.
It was 15:45, and we wanted to get over the high pass and down the other side to the valley below. Well. The pass was a monster slog against the headwind, and through the snow. On the 2350m plateau at the top, it started to snow/hail/rain, the hail like bullets blown into our eyes. But my, it was beautiful!
The view over the valley from the top was nothing short of spectacular. It was a long, long way down.
And we rocketed down. We needed to find somewhere to stay. Camping was not too appealing with this weather, and the next town of any size was 25km down the valley. We are now snug as a bug in a rug (well, two bugs in rugs) in a little hotel on the corner of two roads.

The iWAVE MANIFESTO in 7 AHAs
Read the fairly extensive iWave Manifesto, and explore 12 astonishing "AHAs," (or realizations), that I and many other iWavers have had while doing this work.
Some of these ideas may seem different or "wrong," like AHA #1: "How Matters, All Roads DON'T Lead to Rome." Or AHA #7: "Stop TRYING to breathe." Now read on...
(click PIC on each AHA below to learn more):
First AHA: HOW MATTERS! (All Roads DON'T Lead to Rome):
iWAVE is a methodology that actually works (read what people say) and is based on the principle of highly skillful means, or the idea that HOW YOU GET THERE MATTERS. In other words, All Roads DON'T Lead To Rome––not in this lifetime anyway. HOW you spend your precious energy, resources and above all time on personal growth makes a difference! (See Cat Meltdown video on right for a funny take on this!) Following paths that are not truly integrated, for too long, can lead to more suffering, and particularly a kind of background shame or anxiety that says "I must be doing something wrong, because it isn't working any more."
What if the "HOW" you've been using is wrong, or at least... incomplete...? more
2nd AHA: You are a WET WAVE (frozen into a Dry Particle):
"I + WAVE" ––this is not a clever branding but a literal TRUTH. You may feel like (finite) stuck mind-and-matter, yet you are really flowing (infinite) waves. Your body, mind, emotions, soul and spirit all literally (that is, both scientifically and spiritually) consist of waves, at different densities of consciousness, intersecting for a while as "The Alleged ____" (insert your name).
Reality is WAVY (and fractal) at every level, all the way into the field called Source, God (etc.). Through iWAVE's fluid tech, you can shift your DRY STATE into a WET FLOW, and experience these waves in your body (and in your subtler mental and emotional bodies) as a blissful spontaneous energy flow that, when activated, quickly resolves most problems. And then the real journey begins... more..
3rd AHA: WHO (and WHERE) are you?: A NEW MYSTIC MAP
Who are YOU (the "I" reading this) anyway? And, more importantly,
WHERE ARE YOU on your journey?
You may be stuck in a transition between dimensions. Huh?
There are "crossings" or initiations that we go through as evolving souls, between the MATERIAL, METAPHYSICAL (a.k.a.Mental) and MYSTICAL dimensions of Reality. Right now many souls find themselves at a new crossing, and using the old methods is just not working!
It can be very confusing, because rapidly awakening beings are often undergoing several initiations at once. Why don't you get it? Maybe because you don't have the right map!
Have you ever used a map––even GPS––that didn't work, or even gave you wrong directions? Most spiritual "maps" seem very static, yet reality is not in stasis: it's always dynamically evolving. Try a new, dynamic (wavy!) map to move directly into the Presence, Oneness and Mindful Nowness you've been hearing about: The New Mystic Map.
4th AHA: YOU are probably in a MELTDOWN (and that's GOOD!):
Having a meltdown is not a bad thing, although the word has become fashionable vernacular for "losing it." Yet iWave Institute has been teaching a r-evolutionary inner practice called The Meltdown™ since 1995! Melting down your stuck places leads to new creativity and conscious self-evolution. And btw, another AHA:
"Evolution is not something you DO––it is what you are!" Caterpillars melt down and merge into liquid chaos before some secret "future coding" e-merges them as butterflies.
What if it's really all pure Love, and everything that is happening is trying to dissolve or MELT the parts of you that are stuck?
What if you could know this, and make your MELTDOWN easy and conscious? more
5th AHA: Your Heart IS OPENING (like it or not!):
Even if your heart has been wounded, broken or closed by loss, trauma, divorce, dating or "raising" kids, opening your True Heart is still the only real purpose of your human life. And you can't get round it by isolating, getting the right partner, "succeeding," simulating enlightenment, eating chocolate, having money or keeping busy!
The good news: In Reality, your True Heart is still intact, and you are being gradually opened back into greater love.
You can cooperate with this process, or resist it. Love or Life Itself is breaking your heart open, and dissolving those crusty layers you've built up around it, which are especially noticeable in your relationships––layers of fear, defense, resentment, avoidance of intimacy, abandonment, shame, loneliness, etc. (know anyone like that?)...
One day all that will matter is how far you've opened your heart. Why wait?
Receive a Love transmission right now. more

About the author: William Butler Yeats (/ˈjeɪts/; 13 June 1865 – 28 January 1939) was an Irish poet and one of the foremost figures of 20th-century literature. A pillar of both the Irish and British literary establishments, in his later years he served as an Irish Senator for two terms. Yeats was a driving force behind the Irish Literary Revival and, along with Lady Gregory, Edward Martyn, and others, founded the Abbey Theatre, where he served as its chief during its early years. In 1923, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature as the first Irishman so honoured for what the Nobel Committee described as "inspired poetry, which in a highly artistic form gives expression to the spirit of a whole nation".
