Governor Jim Gilmore has made his changes to the latest General Assembly budget.
Among the highlights: he's cut new funding for museums and historic sites that lawmakers had based on revenues the state has yet to collect.
He's cut almost four million dollars allocated to renovate the Virginia Tech Dairy Barn-- a move that suprised the University.
He signed the bill that would allow the state to issue bonds for U-S 58 along southside Virginia, and road work in northern Virginia.
And he's leaving money alone that would reimburse Michelle Finn for her legal fight with the Governor -- Gilmore intervened to try to keep her from removing her comatose's husband's feeding tubes.
The Governor has a midnight deadline on Monday to finish his work on any other 1999 bills.

County Officials believe runoff from an old landfill could pose a risk to the farm. The Rocky Knoll Dairy is off Virginia 714 south of Bedford. Officials say there's ``no'' evidence that milk from the dairy farm has been affected.
But the farm owners are concerned that runoff may be seeping onto their land. ``No'' word yet on when the tests could start.

As family members passed on or moved away, the homestead fell on hard times.
As the story goes, the house was in such bad shape, pigs and chickens had a free reign.
But in the late 19-60s, R-J's daughter, Nancy Susan Reynolds bought the property and had it restored to its former glory.
Much of the furnishings are original...including the mahogany bed in which R-J and his siblings were born.
This rare, candid photo captures R-J, his wife Catherine, and their children.
