Sounds like a great area Rebecca - Are you anywhere near the mine where the sad story of the mine accident is developing?
Debi
After all your great Localism post on Lewisburg, we really want to plan a trip over to explore your beautiful area. Love all the historical sites and antique shopping!
My West Virginia friends have been on my mind with the mining disaster there. Hope you and your family and friends are well.
Mary, lets hope so.
Debi, I am about 2 hours away from this area....just so tragic. My dad was a coal miner from the age of 12 til 50...and was hurt once when one of the coal bins came rolling down the track. He was standing near a bin with his hand on it, he didn't hear the car coming and smashed off one of his fingers.
Lee and Carol....there is plenty to do in this area, you will love it!
Jim, thank you...we are fine, but a very terrible disaster this is.
Oh! How awful! Thank goodness it wasn't worse... It so easily could have been. I feel so badly for the families there.
