For any of you who didn't get their kids a costume, good last minute idea. Giant box with an address label that says "Not your name, Not your address." What are you? Moral Dilemma. Rim shot ya.

The Morning Glory Inn.

A comfortable stay, the inside has been remodeled and upgraded with new furniture and electronics.
The outside is currently being worked on. The current owners had taken over not too long ago.
I would stay here again. They are pet friendly, for a fee, but welcome pets eagerly.

Our room was clean, had new carpet, mattresses, 1 queen and 2 twin, all convenient amenities and electronics were up to date.
A new big screen with many apps loaded for maximum viewing selection. The only minor issue was no WIFI.
Either, rj45 connection only. I brought my laptop so that was not a big problem.

It rained all weekend. This is the view looking back toward the driveway.

The biggest problem was no CELL coverage. No place on the mountain. 20 miles in any direction and there was no signals to receive.

Next stop Cass WV.

When checking in at the depo we were told that the excursion we were scheduled for left from the Durban Depo, 25 miles away.
We had 15 min to get to the depo 25 miles away on the other side of the mountain.

Raining on our parade was not going to work. We got to the Durbin Depo 10 min late.
The staff was helpful and rescheduled us for the Sunday trip.

My wife's grandfather was an engineer on the logging train that took logs from the mountains down to the valley for Diamond Match.

Departing the Durbin Depot April through December, you can ride in authentic 1920-era coaches and vintage wooden cabooses behind Heisler No. 6 as she steams along the free-flowing Greenbrier River in northern Pocahontas County. The ride covers 10.5 miles in 2 hours and offers many beautiful river and mountain views in the Monongahela National Forest. This adventure is popular for kids and anyone who has an interest in railroads and history!

A stop at the halfway point.

Disembarking back at the depo signaled the end of the line. It was time to return home.

First stop on the way home, Dinner at High's in Monterey VA.
from the web
1635810661730.png
High’s Restaurant resides in one of Highland County's oldest buildings, erected at the center of Monterey's main street in 1901.

Once a saloon and brothel, High's continues to be a special social gathering place for locals and travelers alike.

Good food and reasonable prices at High's. The pulled pork bbq and chicken parmesan are worthy choices and there is plenty to take home in a
lokie box. Cake for dessert. The cakes are prettier than they taste. Next time I will choose the pie.

This restaurant has a unique decor.
The booths are lined with plywood and the patrons are expected to leave grafiti, marking whatever sentiment they choose.

I'm sure one of you have already been here.

Take a closer look.

Oh I LOVE the line through his name deletion style!! There should a thread dedicated to the hateful posts you get. I have to say that makes up in emotion what it lacks in spelling and grammar.
I should, it would preserve the reasoning so people dont have to scream at me becausei banned their buddy with " no reason"

I should make the hateful posts into pretty inspirational quote photos!!
