Back Pack 431 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Sorry didn't see this area until just now. I am new here and don't have much time to do anything beyond asking questions, so sorry. I live in Virginia in the southwest part of the state in the Blue Ridge mountains. We usually go to Goshen for summer camp and tend to do a lot of hiking along the AT. I am a new scoutmaster of a troop of about 50 scouts from all over. We are large for our area. That's about it. I apologize in advance for the many questions I may ask.

Zaphod 17 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 I went to school in Christiansburg. Love that area and the Blue Ridge Mountains! I am originally from the Midwest so being in such beautiful country for several years was wonderful.... I sure do miss it. Link to post Share on other sites
qwazse 4344 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Thanks for your service to the boys, and welcome! And please, ask questions! If you don't we will waste thousands of posts on minutiae that applies a very select few! Link to post Share on other sites

When we go hiking we usually get picked up just east of town and go there for dessert. Link to post Share on other sites
Zaphod 17 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Looks like that opened up waaaay after my time! If I ever make it back out that way, I'll check it out. I see there's a Macado's across the street from there now. I loved eating at the one in Radford... great sandwiches. Link to post Share on other sites
