Hi, I'm Melody, creator and host of 100 Things WV, which follows my book, "100 Things to Do in West Virginia Before You Die", of the nearly the same name. The 100 Things West Virginia book is part of a national book series by Reedy Press, and I was lucky to write it with a lifelong friend, Angie Richards.

If you're looking for a way to learn about traveling West Virginia, through reminiscing the good ole days to hearing about new points of interest and things to do, then this is the show for you.
In this episode, I bring my husband and podcast virgin on the show to talk about our last six weeks on the road around West Virginia.
Along the way, we traveled to and through Fairmont, Romney, Morgantown, Thomas, Berkeley Springs, Harpers Ferry, Wheeling, Moundsville, Sutton, Buckhannon, and more. Please bear with me...the beginning is a bit rough as he isn't sure what to do, having never listened to a podcast before, and at the end, I abruptly end without a proper ending, mostly becuase we were sweating to death in the hotel room with the air turned off so it wouldn't disturb the sound. LOL
I'm learning, please have patience and mercy. And thank you for being here. ;)
