So enjoy free lunch this holiday weekend when you stay in the cabins with our already great winter rates. To be […]
Our Area
My WV: A Love Story
WV, I luv you. Yes I do! While we are often the butt of jokes and on the wrong end of every poll or survey, there is a balance. Nature loves the balancing act. My home and business are in The New River Gorge area of West Virginia, so spectacular in so many ways that […]
Shutdown Be Damned!
Shutdown be damned! Bridge day is really happening anyway. It’s Official. “We will have Bridge Day even if the government is shut down,” said Sharon Cruikshank of the Fayette County Chamber of Commerce. Yes, it will be a little different, but who will notice? My guess is no one. All the security and traffic control […]
Disney, but Dirtier: The BSA Summit is Not All Sparkle, But it Shines
Wow! The BSA Summit is very “Disney-esque.” Very well organized; everyone knows what to do when. Amazing design, wonderfully constructed with attention to detail. Yes, they are still studying mud. I heard not one complaint about the mud. But there is lots of it. But the Tree House is perfect. What an amazing piece of […]
BSA Update, Or, Melting Humans
Up and running, smooth (at least on the outside). The BSA Jamboree is underway here in the mountains of West Virginia. There have been NO traffic hassles for the locals on the main roads. Way to go BSA. They did close that stupid exit at Glen Jean onto and off of 19. Should never have […]
Out of my comfort zone?
What is better than a costume party? No, really, it is hard to make a party any better than starting with costumes and dressing up. It’s like Halloween in June. But there are a few things that really made this day in one of America’s “Coolest Small Towns” even better. Start with a town full […]
Time to Finally Try The Summit
I want to go! To the Summit! They had me at food vendors. Plus sampler-size versions of most of the activities, lots of logo gear, a concert Saturday and a huge fireworks show! Besides, my Grampa B was a big-time scouter, and my Uncle Scott is an Eagle Scout. I think they would like it […]
We’re Your Free WV Wilderness Guides
Let us be your guide. (For free!) Why should you put that kind of trust in us? We have been guides, really, all over the world! Okay, the whole world is stretching it, but a big chunk of the Western Hemisphere is accurate. From Montana’s ice cold waters and rugged back country, to the Grand […]
Hitting the Halfway Point
Halfway. We don’t do things that way. It’s just that we are halfway through the year. Sweet and sad at the same time. For the next few months, we are jamming! And for good reason: it is Ossum here in the summer. If you have not made a summer trip to the New River Gorge, […]
