One of the coolest jobs i ever had was in a book binding factory called Berryville Graphics right on the way to Berryville from Winchester...they were owned by BMG and sometimes the book binding machines would break and we could just sit there for hours reading books that were not published yet and every week there was a book sale for the employees..hardcover books were .25 and paperback books were .10 it was pretty amazing when i look back on it





Patsy Cline is buried in a little cemetary in Winchester on the way to Front Royal and where she is buried there is this amazing view of the Valley...I poured out a beer for her in tribute of course and on her gravestone is the most wonderful saying.....Death cannot kill what never dies, love Charlie....beautiful

Oh how I miss the Apple Blossom Festival and the Treasure Mountain Festival!! And the open-pit BBQ Chicken sold every Saturday during the summer by various clubs and social groups.
