A few more beautiful places before moving on from West Virginia. I am trying to stay no more than a week behind in posting but it is hard! There are so many lovely places to see and experience!
|
Summersville Reservoir - will have to revisit to do the trails here! |
|
Gauley River |
|
stopped at a bridge on the Gauley River just in time to watch a train go by.... |
|
then we saw a couple of rafts pass underneath us heading to the rapids...... |
|
looks like fun!! |
|
pretty waterfall along the road leaving the Gauley River |
|
the Old Roads Trail in Greenbrier State Forest near Caldwell, WV |
|
first time seeing "flaming azaleas" aren't they awesome! |
|
another color of azalea, don't know if these are "flaming" |
|
did I mention some of these trail are pretty steep! See Mike down there! |
|
near Beaver, WV |
West Virginia has a
lot of state parks!
We will have to visit more
next time through:)
|
love this flowery looking shroom! |
|
Trees fall constantly in these dense, wet forests. We run into this all the time. This was an easy one, no climbing over! |
Our final fun adventure
in WV was a coal
mine tour!
Fun for us, I would not
have wanted to be a coal miner
in the early days...OK or now
for that matter;)
|
Our tour guide holding a canary cage, every miner kept an eye on his canary! No singing means poisonous gas, get out! |
|
a miserable job with horrible pay, you did indeed owe your soul to the company store! |
On to Kentucky!!!!
