Lake Moomaw, Convington, Virginia





We took in "Lake Moomaw", Covington, Virginia for our 2nd night of our long weekend on Monday 8/3/ 2015. Such a great area. Lots of fisherman. We kayaked the lake ...not all of it but a great deal. My arms were working overtime. Loved it!!! These waters were so calm. I don't think I have ever seen a more steady group of waters. Now when there was lots of boats in these waters it was a different story. But when we went out after dinner it was super calm & very quiet. I think we timed it perfectly. Guess everyone was eating or just enjoying the view. The last 2 shots are from the AM time when we were getting ready to leave for the day.


Please enjoy a vlog from this day. Beth ( :

"Bar U Ranch" , National Historic Site. Established in 1882, it was huge ranching operation  "even more info here." .  if you know anything about me, you will know I have always wanted to live on a farm, own a farm, have horses, cows, dogs, cats, garden, fields, quiet & peace the whole 9 or is it 10 yards. I want a mountain view like in the movie "Legend of the Fall" .  so when we got the chance to visit this location I really enjoyed seeing how the ranchers came in a took over the whole ranching/cattle business. it was hard work, long hours but if you had the right team you would do just fine. the shot over the campfire is a pot of coffee & hot water. the lady, let me see, i think her name was Greta, that could so be wrong but it is what is popping in my head this moment. she was great at telling the story. these men would all do different jobs. the chef would run with all his team ahead of the folks to set up and get

We both shared such a love for travel & photography. You will be missed. Rest In Peace, great "CameraGirl", RIP! ( : Where do we even start?, I continued to say to my hubby throughout our trip to Washington, Oregon, northern CA back in August 2015, that I wondered how I could take a picture of the whole tall tree? The trees in in the eastern US are huge, but the trees out west are gigantic, massive, huge!! There are .... THEY ARE! ...how do I even begin to show a picture of these awesome trees? I don't own a fancy camera just a normal point and shoot. How do I express to you the magnitude of how tall these massive trees are? they are huge!!! & will you
