My North Carolina buyer had accepted a job as a Clerk Repoter in Lewisburg, WV.  When I met Ms. Buyer she first thought she would buy a house. We looked, but to no avail as she had dogs, cats, rabbits and birds. Oh yes and a daughter. She decided to rent a place and yes she did find a landlord who would rent to her and her daughter as well as all her pets. Since we couldn't find the right home for all of them, Ms. Buyer decided to buy land and build.  We found 2.40 acres on Arbuckle Lane only 2 miles from the courthouse where she worked. Sold price was $37,000.   This property offers a country setting while only being a few miles from everything great about Lewisburg! Beautiful pastoral and mountain views with some amazing sunsets! Located one mile from RT 219 on Arbuckle Lane Road.    ...

Always on the move and going, going, going, like the energizer bunny.  When you are around Martha you feel the energy and want to be energectic.

I lived and worked in the Washington DC Metropolitan area for 35 years. I lived mostly in the Northern Virginia area..... Alexandria, Arlington, McLean, and Annandale Virginia.  When I had decided to retire, my husband suggested we move back to our roots... West Virginia.  I am absolutely so happy living here in Lewisburg, West Virginia. Yes it is small compared to Northern Virginia. The population is about 4400. We don't have the large malls, department stores, large specialty food stores like Macy's, Trader Joe's, etc.  The really nice thing about going to the local stores, shopping or going to the office is that it is only a 3-5 minute drive. Love it!   This weekend was Lewisburg's Holiday Festival.  On Saturday, the kids enjoyed Breakfast With Santa, a benefit for Court Appointed Sp...

Today is Veteran's Day, and I am thankful for all who have served our country and protected our freedoms.    Veterans Day is a day to remember and honor those who have served.  They give up so much for protecting our country. I am so grateful to know about my husband's two great uncles, Julien Gaujot and Antoine “Tony” Gaujot. The two brothers were awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor. It is indeed an honor to be a part of this family and to acknowledge two great men who served our country...   The Medal of Honor is the United States of America's highest and most prestigious personal military decoration that may be awarded to recognize U.S. military service members who have distinguished themselves by acts of valor.
