Stores from VA

 



A.J. Owens ... wondering who that is? I am guessing that it once was a store ... on a trip in late August early Sept of this year 2024. ... we saw these "store fronts" so fun ... just had to share. We were in southwest VA. 







Puckett's General Store, 


2903 Julia Simpkins Road, Hiwassee, VA 24347 (540) 315-2166

not sure you can zoom in ...but the "open sign" does say OPEN ...but when I tried to google this store it says CLOSED temporarily? I wonder??!! They sell Guns and Ammo from a sign lower there on the left side of the building ...in case you might be in need of that service? 






Didn't get a head on shot of this beauty ... I enjoy the RED roof ... so eye appealing ... wondering? Didn't see any shoppers stopping in.





This one when you zoom for me the writing gets really pixelized??! Oh well, Curious what the sell in there ... usually drinks and snacks. What do you find in local similar shops in your neck of the woods?





On the side of the road, just a families, some what look like store, not open to public but just a great view and too cute not to share!! ENJOY! Thank you so kindly for stopping in ... Hope you are well and Doing all you wish to do before the New Year. Take Care. See ya again soon. Beth ( ;

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 ...

( : 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...
