A young listener at a library in Fauquier County poses in the miner's hardhat. A good turnout of about 40 or 50 people of all ages attended and were very interested in the coal mining items in my display.
On the road to my sister Judy's home in Hardy County, WV. It will always be amazing to me that no matter where in the state I travel, the scenery is breathtaking. I have to stop and take pictures because I don't have words to describe what I see.
High-flying crow in Hardy County. I was on Big Ridge Road when I spotted this glider.
Judy runs the stables at Lost River, and has recently started her own blog.

The sulphur springs at Lost River State Park. Although no longer in use, the spring is a beautiful spot rich in history. West Virginia has many such springs that were popular vacation spots in the 1700's and 1800's for those seeking the supposed curing powers of the waters. Did they work? I don't know, but I can imagine that simply soaking in the water in this peaceful place would certainly be restorative to the spirit.
And finally, a day of rest on Sunday! I left Judy's to drive to Virginia for more storytelling and a quick visit with son Jon and his family.
