My wife told me she had to drive to West Virginia with her mom for a funeral 

Which meant that I was going to drive to my wife and mother in law to West Virginia for a funeral 

West Virginia has a racist resume that it continues to update 

Figured I’d shoot pictures whenever I wasn’t driving or providing security 

Forgot ALL MY FILM and had to go to Walgreens 

It is difficult to describe how beautiful the mountains were 

The locals welcomed me Every time I stepped into their space 

Not too many sidewalks in Bluefield so I mostly pulled over and shot from ditches 

An elderly couple pulled over to offer help and invited me onto their property for better views when they saw my camera

A sheriff unchained a fence as I trespassed 

Junie Man from New York returned to the ancestors

And I fell for West Virginia
