Howdy Folks:

Stihl Inc. has purchased 62 acres of land next to their Virginia Beach, Virginia USA manufacturing and warehouse facility.  Included in the purchase was a 850,000 square foot building that has been vacant for several years.  In Stihl's press release they said that the purchase did not require a loan of any kind or tax relief from the City of Virginia Beach.

Humm....  I wonder what they are up to?

God Bless, Ward and Mary.

You don't sharpen a chain when it gets dull.  You sharpen a chain to keep it from getting dull.

They haven't started doing anything yet with that block of land they bought, and that vacant building still looks the same as it has for the past several years. It all looks the same when we drive past it several times a week. This Stihl plant is about 3 miles from our house here in VB.

Thanks for the update.
