Planning the Adventure

Splash & Burn

This trip was pretty much on a whim!

We packed, planned, and left for this trip in under 45 minutes.

One Fall Monday morning; making deliveries. I couldn’t help but to notice the trees. The Autumn glory was in it’s fullest. The beauty the unmasks.

The Mindful Journey: 13 TIPS for Mindfulness, Awareness, Productivity, and Living Intentionally. Tip #4

Our starting point was Morgantown, WV. Ideally; This is a two day roadtrip/loop . Drive towards Summersville, WV; plan to start from that area before 9:00am.

It’s impossible to “beat your ETA” here

The earlier you start; the more time you’ll have to enjoy!

Especially true in the Hatfield-McCoy region.

Stop, Drop, and Roll Coal

Make the Stops. See the Drops.

Roll into the Coalfields.

These stops are in order. The iternary for the loop. Roadtrip ready and Mapped out!

A Way to Spend the Day!

#1: Hawks Nest State Park

Situated Northwest of New River Gorge Bridge National Park; Hawks Nest is a great place to get this Roadtrip started!

#2: Twin Falls Resort State Park

Twin Falls Resort State Park really shines! Its a great park for a day trip. So much to see and do. And the most friendliest folks!

We stayed the night in Twin Falls Resort.

I wish I could recommend a stay. However, I think Pipestem State Park would be a better choice for lodging.

Enjoy a breakfast at Tudor’s Biscuit World in Pineville!

They’ve got Chocolate Milk.

West Virginia has so much indigenous history. Pipestem being one. Seneca Rocks is another.

Many towns and geographic locations were named before.

In History, from a timeline perspective; it’s interesting how we became a nation.

What is Timeline Thinking?

In America; “One Nation under God”. The land was tribes and territories. There are many misrepresentations and lost history.

Thanks For Giving

Present-Day: Modern Times. We’ve got roads, cars, and means to travel.

It hadn’t always been this easy.

Throughout History, People made journies. For food, for work, for family. From comfort to unknown; A refuge of safety.

Travel is magical.

Adventure is out there!

Generations before us have endured many hardships. In today’s times; We face different battles than those in history. However, the principles always remain the same. The battle fought is something we take into our own hands. It is a choice.

Onward and upward!

Love the people, for the people.

One Love. One Heart.

Give Thanks and Praise to the Lord.

Let’s get together and feel all right ❤️
