Y'all,

A couple of weeks ago, Jane and I went to Marlinton and Green Bank to do research for one of the last chapters of the book. While in Marlinton, we stayed at a nice Bed and Breakfast in Marlinton.  We met a man named Nic from Ottawa, Canada.  He was riding a Honda VFR and was touring the Virginias and North Carolina. 

Nic stayed with us for a couple of days before heading to the coalfields, upon my suggestion.  He and I did a nice afternoon tour around Montgomery, Floyd, Patrick, and Franklin counties. 

He did a very nice slide show with captions that you can see here:

(This may take a second or two to load as it converts from French to English)

Thanks to Nic for sharing this with us.

Michael
