Culloden,West Virginia next

Our time is up here in Oak Hill,West Virginia visiting with Mark and Sherry. We have had a great time plus Mark took us out for dinner a couple of times. Thanks Mark.
Yesterday we went with Mark and Sherry over to Lewisburg where Mark and his family use to live.
The drive over was a pleasent one,with a different view of West Virginia. There was still mountains but also a lot of flat land in between the mountains.
Lewisburg is a nice old town that hasn't died out like some of the towns in West Virginia. Lewisburg is the host of the West Virginia State Fair which draws in a great number of people.
The building above was a bank long ago.
One of a couple of old theaters that was in town. Years ago towns of any size had a movie theater.
The old Civil War Cemetery.
Yeah,Lewisburg is a cool town,but I don't know about the coolest town in America. There is Bluefield,the natural air conditioned city when the temperature gets to 90 they serve free lemonade on the street.
We dinner at the upscale restaurant Food and Friends. Marks parents Bob and Ruby who drove up from Virginia for the  occasion. It was good to see Bob and Ruby since it has been a couple of years when we last saw them. We had a very good meal and a very good time with all of us catching up on what we have been doing.
Mark brought us back a different way to see the back road which use to be the main road and also to avoid the rain that was ahead of us.
Love the old barns along the country roads. Another nice day to remember.
We will be going to Nancy's sister Peach and Don's house for,I don't know how long, for awhile.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
