Well, spring is upon us finally. I can't wait. My son and I attended a kite festival today in Martinsville, VA. It was a perfect day for it. Good breeze and mid 60's. There were all kinds of interesting kites there from elaborate to home made. A good time was had by all, and it's easy to tell that people are ready for springtime. I know I am. Read Full Story

One of my favorite times of the year is upon us. The nights and mornings are nice and chilly. The leaves are about to change and give us a magnificent show that I never grow tired of enjoying, and hunting season has begun. According to the Virginia Dept of Forestry , the peak time to enjoy the colors of fall in the mountains of Virginia and along the parkway this year is going to be mid to late October. They also have some links to some routes to take in different regions. If you have never... Read Full Story

We just had some pretty severe storms role through southwest Virginia. Luckily, little damage was done locally that I am aware of, however as the sky started to clear and the the fog was rising through the mountain valleys, it made for a very nice sunset in the area. Read Full Story

Here is a picture of a huge deer killed in Franklin County Virginia hardly a mile from my house a few days ago. It is a main frame 8 pointer, but I hear it had 16 counting all the smaller kickers. It's hard to count them from the pictures. This thing is a monster, and I hear it scored 216. Congrats to the hunter. That's one to be proud of. It looks a lot like the same deer I have been seeing for a couple years around that area but I never could get him. If it is the same one he was pretty... Read Full Story

The brilliant colors of fall seem to be lingering a little longer this year than usual. I think this has been one of the prettiest years in recent memory here in Virginia as far as the colors go, and the length of time we are enjoying them. Here are a few pictures I took close to home this week. Read Full Story

Today we took our cruise down the parkway for the fall foliage. We try to do it every year, but missed it last year. We just took a short cruise this time on the Blue Ridge Parkway from Roanoke down to The Meadows of Dan. It's not a long ride but there are many lookovers to stop at and spend some time, along with Mabry's Mill and Otis's store along The Crooked Road. Otis was a nice fellow who greeted us when we entered with an offer of a cup of coffee. He has a little something for everyone... Read Full Story

Martinsville Nascar fans will have a new feature added to their racing experience this year. They have added a new leaderboard that also has 3 bigscreen TV monitors on it. Fans should be able to see it from pretty much all angles. It is a great addition that I can speak to from experience. The last few years Sprint has provided a large screen TV on the backstretch which is great for seeing replays of anything significant that happens during the race. It always seems like when something... Read Full Story
