Went to Southern West Virginia for the first time in years Tuesday. What memories I have. West Virginia has a way of grabbing a part of your heart. My uncle was admonishing us to not forget where we came from. I didn't get it until my husband and I were driving home. There is a pull and real sense of roots there. Where my parents grew up, where their parents made a home and raised their families. My mom always said we were going home when we would go to WV. I get it now. There are a lot of memories in West Virginia.
