Abingdon, VA

Since we were going thru Abingdon, Va to the cross country meet, Tracey and I decided that on the way back we would visit one of our favorite VA sites. This first piture here is The Barter Theatre. Of course it's name comes from how poeple used to pay to get in. The would barter what they had chicken, veggies, ect in exchange for wathing a play. We went a few years back and absolutely loved it. In a few weeks Ben has a meet in Bristol Tn and we may see a show after the meet.









This picture is of the Martha Washington Inn. It was built in 1832. History indicates that is has been used by a Revolutionary War general as his family's residence, a college, a Civil War hosptial, and an Inn. It is beautiful!!!



The next few are a few churhces and a sign that I quickly snapped a picture of.
