I Hate To Brag

…BUT!

I know. I am always talking about how gorgeous WV is.

You just can’t take a photo here without it looking like a painting, it’s so pretty.

Take this fast-flowing, boulder-strewn trout stream. There’s a sign that says–Kayak At Your Own Risk. Uh, yeah.

This is Glade Creek Grist Mill, a restored water mill at Babcock State Park located in Fayette County, a couple hours from where I live. It’s a fully operable mill and they sell cornmeal and buckwheat flour through the park office.

Believe it or not, the park used to allow people to swim here.

Been anywhere good lately? Tell me!

    Ever feel like you’re lost in a John Denver song? Some days, that’s what your blog does to me. That, and my brother’s Postcards from Colorado.

    Were you on a bridge when you took the shot? It looks like you are in the middle of the creek.

    Yes, I was on a wooden footbridge!

    Congratulations Estella!

    I love the pictures and would love some buckwheat flour. My Mom used to make buckwheat pancakes for us. Yummy.

    Hmm…my dh and ds2 went to a corn maze yesterday. I had to stay behind with ds1 but that’s okay. It was cold and windy here. They had a blast!

    Beautiful pictures! I would love to see that everyday. Do you live nearby?

    Btw, I love that you have Nathan Kamp as the cover model for “The Beast Within”. He’s the guy I did a tribute to at my blog (I think back in March). Can you say obsessed? LOL.
