			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Holidays are time to enjoy family and friends, but so often the holidays become a series of stressful days of meal planning and shopping and cleaning that take away the fun of the season. Why not enjoy all the beauty and ambiance of Thanksgiving, without any of the fuss? Book a stay at a historic Virginia bed and breakfast and leave your stress behind.</p>
<p>Thanksgiving at The Holladay House Bed and Breakfast, located in scenic Orange, Virginia, is an event not to be missed. Innkeepers Sam and Sharon Elswick create the perfect traditional Thanksgiving feast for their guests each year.

<p>In addition to offering a gourmet Thanksgiving dinner, the innkeepers at this Virginia inn also are offering some special rates to guests who book multiple nights. Book two nights and the second night is discounted 25 percent. Book three nights and you&#8217;ll get two nights at the regular rates, but the third night will be half off.</p>
<p>Built in&#8217;30, this stately Federal-style building has a rich history and is one of the stops on the Journey Through Hallowed Ground. This journey, created by the National Parks Service, includes dozens of historic spots along Virginia Route 15. The innkeepers have restored The Holladay House to its former glory, but offer plenty of modern amenities, such as guest rooms with whirlpool tubs and fireplaces.</p>
<p>In addition to all the wonderful cuisine and ambiance at the inn, the village of Orange and the surrounding area offer plenty of activities.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you lost a job recently or find yourself with less income than you used to have?  Then looking for savings in your Virginia auto insurance quotes and rates is a great place to start.  You need to keep in mind how your family and you would be by each change you make to your coverage.</p>
<p>Here are the basics of Virginia auto insurance quotes.  Virginia requires that you get minimum limit liability insurance as well as uninsured/underinsured motorist protection and no-fault insurance.  You also can choose to get comprehensive, rental reimbursement, towing or collision.</p>
<p>If you own an old car then you can cut back on Virginia car insurance by increasing the deductible for collision and comprehensive. In case the value of your car is low think of dropping collision coverage and take control of the potential loss instead.</p>
<p>You can lower your Virginia auto insurance quote by getting rates from several insurance providers, insuring all family cars with a single company. Moreover, there are insurance companies that give lower rates if they insure your vehicles and home. Find out if you qualify for reduced rates because youre a nonsmoker, a student driver with a good grade point average or have a clean driving record.  If you do your shopping for Virginia car insurance quotes online, you can save even more with the online discounts that are available.</p>
<p>A car that is low profile (which means it&#8217;s less likely to be stolen) will have the lowest Virginia insurance quotes.  The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has a website that will help you figure out where your car stands.  If you have one of the older vehicles, you can find them at the bottom of the website page.</p>
<p>Drive less to get discounts on Virginia car insurance. There are several insurance companies that give low-mileage discounts if you drive a lower than average number of miles every year. Talk to your insurer about this to know if you are eligible for discounts. </p>
<p>You can also get discounts on your Virginia auto insurance quotes if you have safety gear like air bags, anti-lock brakes, automatic seat belts and daytime running lights installed on your car. Other gear that give extra savings are anti-theft devices and an approved alarm system.</p>
<p>Believe it or not, you can get lower Virginia auto insurance quotes for teens.  You&#8217;ll save money by having your teenager on your policy rather than a separate one.  Good grades and an approved driver&#8217;s ed class can also qualify for lower rates.  You&#8217;ll also save even more on your Virginia auto insurance quote is your child is in a college over 100 miles from home and the car doesn&#8217;t go with them!</p>
<p>These are just a few of the ways that you can start to save when getting Virginia car insurance quotes.  So get started by looking for Virginia car insurance quotes online and see what you can do to lower your rates today!</p>
