Ha! Yeah, just like Agent Orange, they're organic!

I have always liked practical uses of technology that actually have a positive impact on people's lives. Check out this article about some Virginia Military Institute engineers' project to control...

Two miles from Waynesboro to Rockfish Gap.

If anyone has ever wondered why America is such a litigious society, they have but to peruse these illogical arguments, in support of the distribution of unsubstantiated rumors.

Probably because you can't come up with a logical response. A Monty Python clip often provides good cover.

Back to facts:
No baseless rumor has ever helped a hiker to avoid trouble.
There are...

That may be the message you received, but it is not the one I sent.

The simple fact is that I am here in Waynesboro, and I can't find anyone who knows anything about this alleged infection that...

I admire your loyalty, but I also have to deal with reality, and reality says "It doesn't matter how many NOBO and SOBO you have done. You shouldn't be tossing these comments around, lightly. I've...

It is far too easy, on Whiteblaze, to start rumors about a city, with no substantiating facts or references. I live in Waynesboro, and shuttle hikers frequently, and haven't heard of anybody being...

As discussion continues, it can't be said often enough: "The Town of Front Royal had nothing to do this this whole matter."

I'm glad that it was made clear that the Town of Front Royal had nothing to do with this matter, and that the idea of boycotting Front Royal was a ridiculous overreaction.

I had the chance to...

UPDATE: The Tourist Information Center, at Rockfish Gap, was reopened last week. The water problem wasn't repaired, but they did install a fresh water tank to handle the situation until the landlord...

Definitely, the best way to get there is to email [email protected]! Get a ride with that grizzly day hiker, in his blue Ford Explorer, the Hiker Hauler. That's me, by the way.

Shuttling folks...

Yes, I am still hauling hikers. Email me your details to [email protected], and I'll get back to you when I return to my office.

Thanks.

FYI, Waynesboro, VA has a pretty active Facebook page (not government run) you can see at http://facebook.com/Waynesboro. It is produced by the Waynesboro.Com folks, whose main web page is being...

Maple syrup is made from tree sap gathered in buckets in many places, even here in Virginia. Highland County has an annual Maple Syrup Festival every year (in March). They are a couple of hours west...

Good topic of discussion! We need to find a solution to this issue for Waynesboro's visiting hikers. I'll talk to the folks at the tourism office.

Yeah, the water supply at Rockfish Gap has a problem (well pump, I think), and Augusta County shut down the Tourist Information Center, until the landlord gets it fixed. The Trail Angel list is still...

Have a blessed Easter, folks!

It is starting to climb out of the frigid zone, here in the Shenandoah Valley. Within the next ten days, we will be bumping up against 70 degrees.

Definitely Waynesboro! We have a Trail Angel network that will take you the 2 miles from the trail to the city, and all of the grocery stores, restaurants, laundromats, hospitals and a movie theater...

[email protected] operates out of Waynesboro and does Front Royal. (540.949.0770).

Roanoke to Swift Run Gap is a good hike that I think you will enjoy. YellowSirocco is right about the Waynesboro Trail Angel network. They are plentiful and will drive you down the mountain into...

I won't thank you for the mental images this conversation has generated. ;-)

Wow. That was one serious impact. Your post had me visualizing hitting a large animal at 70 mph. I couldn't really imagine what that would be like, but your picture certainly focused my imagination....
