An HDRI to showcase West Virginia, a state that I only visited 2 weeks ago for the first time and I'm quickly falling in love with. Every time I mention to people that I'm going there, the Deliverance jokes follow soon after. While some of the people there are folksy, I have found them to be friendly and welcoming. It is the 2nd poorest state in the US, but I find it to be rich in natural beauty. It is the only state that is completely on mountains. I plan another trip even farther south in to the state in the next couple of weeks.

Hey, John Denver fell in love too..

Take Me Home, Country Roads - John Denver

Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue ridge mountains
Shenandoah river -
Life is old there
Older than the trees
Younger than the mountains
Growin like a breeze

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads

All my memories gathered round her
Miners lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine
Teardrops in my eye

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads

I hear her voice
In the mornin hour she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And drivin down the road I get a feelin
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads
Take me home, now country roads
Take me home, now country roads

It is a beautiful state. I've driven through the mountains a few times. There should be some rreal nice color in a few weeks.

A bend in the road, is not the end of the road... unless you fail to make the turn.

It really is. I think they will hit peak sometime next week, but I'm not sure if I can make another drive out there :(

I'm more than amazed! Wonderfully beautiful!

Anything that happens: unplanned, spontaneous, or by "mistake" is better than anything that have been previously thought.
