Watch for us May 15!

Dear Reader,

We are in the process of rebuilding our website, so please bear with us during the coming weeks!  

Pleasant Living--or PL as we have come to be known--is an out-of-the-ordinary complimentary bimonthly magazine for Virginia's River Country--a publication unlike any other in the region.  In a few words, PL offers a fresh and folksy perspective on life and culture in the River Country, and since 1989, has become a name spoken around dinner tables from Richmond to the tip of Virginia's Northern Neck.  One reader commented that PL is "about an experience that can't be bought."  We think that says it all.

For over two decades we've celebrated life and culture in the River Country and captured the essence of the people and place we call home.  We write about people making a difference--perhaps your next door neighbor--food and wine, nature and the outdoors, gardening, history, and also publish book reviews, commentary, and memorable images by regional photographers.  PL is about what makes life here unlike any other place.

Published in glossy black and white, PL is both nostalgic and contemporary--not a sterotypical four-color lifestyle magazine.  Our simple, artful style and genuine voice bring readers and advertisers back year after year.  And now, PL Online offers a new and exciting digital world where video and audio come together with great editorial, and much more.

Once you read us, we know you'll agree that PL is a special voice you won't read anywhere else.

Here's to the pleasant life!

Best regards,
    The PL Family
