Oh, the West Virginia hills, how majestic and how grand

I suppose the residents of every state think theirs is the best. But I like to think ours has a little edge. As John Denver penned in his famous song, our beloved West Virginia is "Almost Heaven"!


 From the farms...
   

  to the mountains.


The creeks...
 
  

and the waterfalls.

There's beauty everywhere you look

 

and we thank God for our "home among the hills".

Happy Birthday West Virginia!
