Today I drove across Great North Mountain to deliver three photos to the Lost River Trading Post. This is a coffee shop, store, and gallery in Wardensville. (I don't know why they named it Lost River when it is not in that town nor is it on that river, although it is on the Cacapon River which is the same water by a different name and in a different valley. (More about the river's unusual story in my 9/10/2015 post.)
Anyway, the photos are part of an exhibition with a "Travel" theme. Eight members of the Shenandoah Chapter of Photog Friends are participating. The photos will be displayed until September 20, with luck. Our last show ended very early with the Covid19 lockdown.
I'm including a picture of a pretty display of glass. Did you know that West Virginia is famous for its glass?
By the way, I learned that Wardensville was once named Trout Run after a local creek.
After I left the store, I drove across the ridge to Baker. I happened across this United Methodist Church there.
I was impressed with the implementation of its health protocol. In my country there are also strict regulations.

Greetings from Indonesia.
Nice church to vivit, odd looking at a red cowboy cow
ReplyDeleteNice post
ReplyDelete...a lovely collection finished with a beautiful church.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know about WV and glass. I have a WV sticker on my car's back window, from the former owner who loved to go there and take part in activism against mountain-top-removal.
ReplyDeleteInteresting.
ReplyDeleteI love all that glass in the window!
ReplyDeleteThe glass is beautiful ... it’s great that your photographs will be displayed in the gallery.
ReplyDeleteThe church looks serene.
