Autumn Glory
And the Autumn Glory festival was the only fair I've been to with a Thai fair food booth. It actually looked pretty good...

More Photos from Dolly Sods/Oakland Trip
Here's the men's bathroom in Hellbender's Burritos, my new favorite restaurant in Davis, WV. Apparently a hellbender is a kind of salamander that lives around there. I had just bought 941 postcards for $7.00 at the Blackwater trading post so everyone in the restaurant played "guess how many" (kind of like the jellybean game) and the person closest to the actual number won a sampler of postcards. Anyway, here's an X-files scene in their bathroom. You also see some photos of the smallest church in the lower 48 states.

Dolly Sods #2
Dolly Sods
And now some photos from the Dolly Sods. October is the best time to go up there - and they had fixed the road since the last time I made the voyage. In one of these photos you can see the one-sided trees that grow because of the extreme winds. You can see how blurry the others are - it was hard to hold the camera steady.

Harvest Table Food
Harvest Table
I stopped in Meadowview, VA en route to the National Storytelling Festival - its the restaurant associated with with authors of the book I'm teaching in my PHIL classes this semester. Here are some photos.
Here you see the kitchen, the creative outdoor seating (which smelled of so much basil), and the storefronts for the restaurant and general store, which made up most of the downtown.
