I believe "John Denver" was from W.VA. too. I love the song "Country Roads"
This will spoil your day too...that song wasn't about WEST Virginia, it was about Virginia. But it sounded better saying WEST Virginia...and the rest, as they say, is history. I don't think John Denver, just one of the writers, had even been to West Virginia when they wrote that.

No, that only explains why I remember visiting The BlueRidge Mountains as a teen and not W,VA.
I was in Wheeling, W.VA. in 2006.
Yea its nice except nurses dont make all that much here.Unlike say Innova fairfax hospitals in Northern VA. Or say like flex Rn staffing where you can make around $50.00 per Hour.Unlike say Jefferson Memorial in Charles Town WV.Where your lucky to make say $23.00 Oh buy the way i want to thanks all the Wv people for petioning to have me removed for here.It's good to be back !!!
I almost bought a "Small Engine Repair" shop/Business in West, VA. listed on the net for 40,000 about 2 years ago.
That seems to me like a good idea. They seem to use a lot more small engines with all the mud runners, boats, weed wackers, and power mowers, etc. It seems like there are lots of opportunities for individuals here. I think it's because it's not "californicated" yet. I think that Pa., NC, NoVa, and Ohio-Ky. function as a sort of filter, to protect WV. But For how long, is anybody's guess.
It's only my opinion, but the air is definitely cleaner is West Virginia . . all anyone has to do is drive over the Eastern Continental Divide to see it.

The word smog comes from smoke and fog which is technically a stratus cloud mixed with pollution. Today, unfortunately, smog is a problem in many of the world's big cities. Like here, the famous 'smog-city' of Los Angeles. You can just make out downtown L.A. through the smog.
I'm an RN
I guess that is what you were asking? lol
