BY MEGHANN COTTER FOR THE FREE LANCE-STAR On March 15, this year, I was driving through the backwoods of Vermont on an attempted spring break getaway with the family. Poor reception and all, the call came through that Virginia was going on âlockdown,â and I might want to think about heading home in case that ended up applying to things like gas stations, roadways and restaurants. We spent the night at our destination and promptly hit the road the next morning back to Fredericksburg. My husband drove, and I wrestled with the spotty Wi-Fi on my phone so the Micah staff and I could devise a plan for how we would care for our neighbors in an increasingly uncertain time.
