In Hardy County, West Virginia.
Mathias in an unincorporated town along Lost River. I was surprised to find a large church in such a small town. This is the Mathias Church of the Brethren.
I'm including a shot of my car's map display in case you want to see where I was. One time some years ago we drove into Mathias from over Great North Mountain via Upper Cove Road, which is Crooked Run Road on the Virginia side. I remember that the road was very rough for a couple miles after we crossed in West Virginia, so I never went that way again for fear of losing my muffler.
While in Mathias, I also stopped to photograph the post office. I'm documenting post offices in honor of our postal workers, who do a remarkable job.
The old brick buildings are so wonderful! We don't have them here in CA.

Wonderful historic church (well, that the congregation has continued in different buildings through the years!) Lost River could definitely be appropriate name.
