West Virginia History - The Old Stone Church

Last summer I was able to explore the lovely town of Lewisburg, West Virginia.

It is a town full of history.

This is The Old Stone Church

Wikipedia tells me:

The Old Stone Church was built in 1796, and is a two story, rectangular limestone building. An addition was built in 1830, making the building 75 feet by 44 feet in size. It features an open cupola belfry. During the American Civil War it served as a hospital for both Union and Confederate forces. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. The related Stone Manse was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004

Fenced In

"The grass is not, in fact, always greener on the other side of the fence. No, not at all. Fences have nothing to do with it. The grass is greenest where it is watered. When crossing over fences, carry water with you and tend the grass wherever you may be." 

 — Robert Fulghum

Jim and I have had a lot going on with our little business,

New River Nature 

At our shows we meet many wonderful people.

One was a lovely lady

from New Zealand who stopped by and purchased 3 prints.

One of those was the image above.  She was delighted by the muted colors and said she would be hanging all 3 in her Healing Clinic in New Zealand.

This is why we are in business.  

To celebrate nature and share it with others. 

Her conversation with me was one of the highlights of my day!  

Bluestone Dam - Hinton West Virginia - Black and White

Bluestone Dam, a concrete gravity dam located just upstream of the confluence of the New and Greenbrier Rivers. The dam is 165 feet high and 2,048 feet long. The dam was authorized by Presidential Executive Order in 1935 and approved by the U.S. Congress in the Flood Control Acts of 1936 and 1938. Construction of the project was begun in early 1941, suspended in 1944 because of World War II. Work resumed in 1946, and completed for operational purposes in 1949.

Monarch Butterfly Magic

Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.
