Looks like you two are getting some fun out of that big beast. VA has elk, I don't know if WV does too.
 
Thanks Ricekila.&nbsp; Don't do much photography lately, except with the iphone. It was nice to use a real camera for a change lol.<br /><br />Dragonfly - Yes, the past week was very nice.&nbsp; On the days we we wnated to stay around the camper, it was nice to have the extra room and 'separation' space.&nbsp; The bed's a lot more comfortable, too, than the sleeper sofa in the old van. We can stay indefinitely in this one.<br /><br />Still working on her to sell the house.
 
We spent four nights just about 50 feet from the Greenbrier River





 
Awesome, glad you had a chance to get out and enjoy the rig!
 
Im in WV <img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" />&nbsp; If you guys can possibly swing it, come down to weston and check out the old Kirkbride Asylum (http://trans-alleghenylunaticasylum.com).&nbsp; They offer a historic tour for like 10 bucks (and other tours, if you are in to ghost hunting they even have an over night).&nbsp; The place is huge, its the largest hand cut sandstone building in the world after the kremlin.&nbsp; Really interesting and beautiful architecture.<br /><br />There is a big haunted house right now too, but it is in the another building.
 
We drove right past it on the way home Tuesday morning!
We thought it was such a cool place for a haunted house, but we hadn't time to stop. Wish we'd known you were there, would have made time for a meet-up.
 
nice photos and I like the ruins of the factory. Darrell
 
Thanks Darrell. The burned down sawmill had a holocaustic feel for me. It didn't really work in color.
 
People rip on wv (inbred hillbillies), but i moved here from the ghetto in baltimore.&nbsp; Altho it has small town problems, and you are far from everything, it definitely is picturesque.&nbsp; I would walk outside my cabin to go to work at night and look up and the stars felt like they were gonna suck me up.&nbsp; I hadn't seen stars like that till i came out here.&nbsp; WV is a beautiful place, lost in time.
 
Aw shucks, I was in Cass at the beginning of the month &amp; camped on the Greenbrier River Trail for a week between Cass, Cloverlick, Clawson, Buckeye &amp; Marlinton! <br /><br />I Wish I would've waited, I could've met youn's <img src="/images/boards/smilies/frown.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" /><br /><br />Did youn's make it to Watoga State Park to camp along the Greenbrier?<br /><br />It'd be cool to have a meetup next year in the fall in that general area- We all could even ride the scenic-railroad train(s).<br /><br />Great pics btw...
 
My home state; lived the first 19 years there; where I learned to live outside.<br />These pics made me want to go back. Did a lot of fishing there, just below Bluestone dam in New River.<br /><br />P.S.---A Mountain William is a sophisticated hillbilly.
 
xj700<br /><br />We spent our first couple of nights at Watoga: those river pictures are from&nbsp;just behind&nbsp;the campground area, about 50 feet from the site.&nbsp;lol We could ride our bikes down past Jack Horner's Corner and pick up the trail.<br /><br />A great place for a meetup; have a couple of train photos, but none I really liked. Wished I had announced we were going that way, but we left with no plans, as normal. Just drive and stop.<br /><br />lampliter<br /><br />Yea, a beautiful state.&nbsp; Hadn't been there for a couple of years though - don't know why.
 
Love the picture of the Coal Mine trash thrown on top of the graves of the workers.<br />Priceless.
