This former church building is located in the community of Robinhood, WV (Boone County). Most recently this site served as UMWA Local Hall 8377. Now abandoned, one can find nothing more than old mine records and used shooting targets in the unsecured ruins.

Building 3 Art


This piece of art is on the front of Building 3 on the State Capitol Complex in Charleston, WV. This mosaic style piece includes a lady standing in the center of six scenes (which I assume represent different industries). Below the lady is the state motto, Mountani Semper Liberi which means Mountaineers are Always Free.

Don't Mess With A Lad in Plaid




I had the opportunity once again to visit the Virginia Scottish Games this year. They were located in The Great Meadow in The Plains, Virginia about 45 minutes from D.C. This is a very unique festival that anyone can attend with paid admission. They have multiple vendors setup with clothing, gifts and food.
