June 6, 2007 - Charleston, WV to Salem, VA

We took the scenic route along the Coal Heritage trail.


And passed through some pretty desolate places.



But they have nice water towers.


And beautiful valleys. They don't call it "almost heaven" for nothin'!



Haines family, this one's for you.

On to Salem for some baseball, and maybe a physical.

The field



We met up with Jim. That's his arm next to Stephanie. Sorry Jim, we'll try to get a better picture next time.

Beer and guns. Where are we?

Mascot.

The Salem Avalanche (Class A for the Red Sox) beat the Potomac Nationals (Class A for the Nationals) 9-3.
