Evening Drive through West Virginia Countryside
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
All my memories gathered 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine
Teardrops in my eye
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine
Teardrops in my eye
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mamma
Take me home, country roads
Morning Drive as We Left West Virginia
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
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads.
Take me home, now country roads.

What a great drive.
Wow! So beautiful; I love these. Looks like a great time.
I'd give me eye teeth to make this journey again. So, so beautiful. I particularly like the horse barn and would be delighted to eat and sleep in it - probably couldn't even afford the fixer upper.
Almost heaven, indeed!
Ellen, indeed it was a great drive.
Jason, thanks for stopping by; it was beautiful land and the photos don't do it justice.
Lesley, I too fell in love with the horse barn. There were no horses about for me to photograph and yes, I feel sure it is mega expensive.
Mama Zen... especially as late in the evening as it was it did seem heavenly.
A covered bridge outside of Vermont! Love Gertie's. You might enjoy this.
K, I love the reggae version!
Isn't it great? Toots is a treasure. I saw him perform this back in the 70s, and my jaw nearly dropped!
Just wonderful!!! I love the Shenandoah Valley. Been there lots of times!
