Wardensville Random-osity

The Good: For Heritage Weekend, the town of Wardensville put up signs telling the stories of various buildings. This made for an interesting walking tour. (You can click on the image to see it larger.)

The second building in this combined image is now an arts center. We enjoyed seeing the work of some very talented artists.

The Random: In the Star Mercantile, I found a couple of murals. The longer one has a cut-thru in the lower left, revealing a room behind it.  The other one is partially obscured by a display shelf.



The Fun: Frank found a friend in the mercantile!

  3. I've been on a couple of self guided historical tours with booklets in the past and they are a joy to take.
    It appears as though your hubby is dancing with the bear. :-)
