Western Virginia / submitted by Helmut and Gina Walter of Yorktown
In October we went on a six-day fall foliage trip to western Virginia. In addition to beautiful colors everywhere, we had interesting stops at the newly renovated Warm Springs Pools (previously called the Jefferson Pools); Douthat State Park, pictured; the Greenbrier, in West Virginia; Mountain Lake Lodge, where “Dirty Dancing” was filmed; the Friday night Jamboree at the Floyd Country Store; and the Mabry Mill. Virginia has some neat places off the beaten path.
