Wild and Wonderful West Virginia Weekend

It might already be Thursday but I am still thinking about this weekend. We drove out to West Virginia on Friday for the long weekend and I took Tuesday off to extend things. We changed it up this year and went to Elkins, WV, a significantly less touristy town than Davis or Thomas. Our Airbnb Continue reading

Why not?! It’s been a great week so far, even if I have been sleepier than usual. Normally I Continue reading
