Moved to Fayette county from Western N.Y.S. Have spotty wifi, no cell phone signal at the house, and...I love it! People are friendly, its quiet, no one bothers me and the scenery is gorgeous. What more can a simple man like me ask for?
If my memory serves me correctly, we all tried to smack our paddles against pillow rock as we got ripped past it. Such a beautiful place. Love that bridge, love that river and loved that sky. Wow. This is my favorite one from you yet. Beer looked great, that Mothman one sounded awesome. Love me some local legends.
How fun! I’m glad you got to go rafting there, too, it’s such a once-in-lifetime experience! And I love local legends too! Like my whole road trip is about beer in the outdoors, someone ought to do a road trip about paranormal things. There’s so much out there!
West Virginia is the last state I have to visit and I will have all 50 checked off👍. Planning my trip to West Virginia for 2023, I can't wait, thanks for the ideas on places to go and see👍
Your 40% from your goal of all 50 States. The pizza looked good at the end. Love the little towns to just walk around & look at some of the shops. When we go camping we always go into a small town & buy something somewhere just to support a local business. One of the coolest ones was a rock shop that had lots of really cool rocks in it.
Oh that’s awesome! Gotta love cool rocks. I like to do a lot of small town walking too. When I was in Vermont, I came across this little town that was just so charming. I didn’t know places like that actually existed!
Mothman sightings were especially common right before natural disasters, including a bridge collapse. And that made people think there may be a connection, but is Mothman trying to warn us?...or bringing the chaos and doom with him?!?!? Fun video, congrats on #20!
Oh no way! That’s awesome, hope I did your state justice! Although, I have a question- are pepperoni rolls served warm most of the time, or is it more like muffins were they could be warm or room-temperature?
@@BeerinBeautifulPlaces you did a great job…though I actually live in Ohio in a city just across the border from WV. Pepperoni rolls can be either. I prefer them warm but seem to eat them room temperature most the time just due to convenience (getting one while on the road, etc). They are so common in this area that I often forget that they are a local food.
Do you ever get scared being alone everywhere? I am going to be 70 next month, planning to start traveling in my SUV with my dog, Snoopy. Wish i were fearless like you!
I’m definitely scared sometimes! It took lots of baby steps to get where I am. Traveling with other people, traveling for shorter periods of time, going to places with a lot of people around… My other piece of advice is to prepare, prepare, prepare as much as possible beforehand and then when you get out there, try your hardest not to think about any thing scary. Even unrealistic things, like ghosts and aliens. Do your worrying ahead of time, in other words. Once you get out there, try thinking happy thoughts only or distract yourself by listening to podcasts, watching movies, etc. Best of luck, my friend. I know it’s so hard, but it’s such a good feeling to feel like you can go wherever you want without having to depend on other people!
I am excited to see your journey to NRG tonight. We recently passed through and had a great vehicle friendly campsite between Thurmond and Thayer campground.
I had a bike horse, tied rope for reins to the handle bars….didn’t end well 🤕 thanks for the memories and taking us with you on your beer and states quest.
Yes!!! You are one of my own! I remember holding the streamers that came off my handlebars to be reins! I could see how the rope could have not worked out so well!
Congrats on 20 States! I gotta learn to travel more like you do. Look for things to stop along the way. My dog always likes to stop for a walk. Will load All Trails!
Glad see you enjoy our state. Lots of hidden gems. Just don't let our old mean Mothman get you while trying find them. He really harmless just a prankster that enjoy to scare the pee out of people.
G,day Maddie What a coincidence ! 36 degree's where you were, and as I watch this its 36 C here (95f) . Nice river, nice bridge and Beautiful Sun Set. I always have a drink at hand but I'm Diabetic. Love little Markets, always good for a feed and a bit of local knowledge. I assume your still at home? Don't forget your vehicle maintenance, and check your tyres, very important. But you know that. So, be careful, have some fun and Drink some beer. Might do the same, got a Swan Larger in the fridge calling my name. All the best Bluey
Aw that’s great! I would much rather be in 36 C, personally. It’s pretty stinkin hot but I just can’t stand the cold! Hope you and your mates are enjoying the summer and keeping healthy!
We spent several weeks in WV last fall……closest camping we could find to BLM/FS land out west (we’re from KY). Loved the Monongahela NF. It was quite a bit warmer then your visit!
Haha.. Maddie participates in the most iconic rafting adventure known to the United States, happens upon it some time later when there aren't 67 people perched on pillow rock diving (maybe-clothed) onto the odd creature craft passing by and does or doesn't make reference to the New river being the oldest.. Ever. Stay tuned good greif she cute.
Just realized your 8 pm is my 7 pm in Ontario, Canada, well eastern Ontario to be exact. This province is so large it has two time zones. See you at 7/8

That’s cool, my grandma grew up in Louisa. I’d say I’m fascinated with Appalachia, too. It really is a shame about coal companies, too. My hope for the future is that when WiFi and technology spreads out there, people can find remote jobs online. That way they’ll have a choice of where they work

WV has some of the prettiest views anywhere. You caught it at a good time.
It was more mountainous than I expected! It was great!

Yeah! There’s even statues of him because he’s so WV famous!
great one , so cold then , now it is colder . lol
Oh I bet!! 🥶❄️
What a lovely state! I was mesmerized by that river. And the sunset -- wow. Love to you, Cioca.
Thank you, Cioca! It was a really nice place!
Great sites beautiful scenery as always! 20 states ! You are doing great 👍 safe travels Maddie! Thank You!

Oh great! Hopefully you were there when it was warmer than when I went!
Ooh I love coming along on ur adventures! You always find unique n beautiful views! I also have a huge fascination w rock formations.
Thank you!! So glad that you appreciate the same things I do! Yay!
Great video Maddie, you did the state proud, stay safe girl!
Oh good!! That is always what I’m going for!
WOW that sky! River scenery is always magnificent...stay warm. Its 2 degrees here so I wouldn't want to car camp right now. 20/50 whoohoo.
Yeah! Always gotta appreciate a good sky! But 2 degrees? Oh no no no!
You cool..the good life. ✴️☮️
Yep! Not always easy, but so, so worth it!

Thank you! Yeah it is really fun stopping to explore things. I’m just so curious about everything and have to investigate
Execelent my friend
Thank you very much!
Love it!
Our favorite part of driving to Florida from Buffalo, NY is West Virginia. Heck we should just omit FLA and spend the trip hanging in WV 😎🍻
You should!! You’d have less of a drive and there’s so much to explore!
@@BeerinBeautifulPlaces Yup! Been to the NRG where it crosses on 19 a million times. Need to take the fishing poles next time!
Glad see you enjoy our state. Lots of hidden gems. Just don't let our old mean Mothman get you while trying find them. He really harmless just a prankster that enjoy to scare the pee out of people.
Haha that darn mothman! Love that piece of lore
Nice video Maddie. Wish you a Happy and Heatly year 2022!
Thanks! Happy and healthy Ben’s year to you too!

Stay tuned good greif she cute.
PS, mothman was an owlman if he (or she) were anything at all.. Frankly, moths just don't live that long.
The New River is the oldest river ever?!?!? What!?!? And that’s good to know about mothman, too!
I live in Beckley right by you if you want some tips and good spots I know of all them!! My mom was a river guide for 20 years
I don’t know when I’ll be in WV again, but thank you for the offer! I’m sure there’s all sorts of cool spots around there
Keep heading south and stay ahead of the Arctic Freeze.
Definitely! I’m staying at my parents’ now, and then headed to Florida 🌴
Planning to buy a Sienna and replicate your setup
Oh that’s awesome! Let me know how I can help you along the way!
Just realized your 8 pm is my 7 pm in Ontario, Canada, well eastern Ontario to be exact. This province is so large it has two time zones. See you at 7/8
Oh yay, that’s earlier than you expected, right?! Glad to have ya!
Sorry to ask, but I wonder hoq many times you have "to go" since you drink that much, doesn't it hinder you?
Yeah, it is pretty annoying to keep having to find bathrooms while I’m out and about, but usually there’s at least a gas station nearby wherever I am!
Have you ever lived in moscow idaho? You look familiar
Nope! I’ve been to Idaho but only for a few days
