Day 81

Day 81 ~ October 7, 2009
Today we toured the Foxfire museum. This is the chapel. They 'created' a typical mountain community from the late 1700's to the early 1800's by moving buildings to this location. However, they had to build the chapel because no one would part with their old chapels because of the importance the buildings held for the community. I was rather glad to hear that. :) If you don't know anything about Foxfire, check it out here: www.foxfire.org

There were a lot a really great quotes in the building that showcased pictures of people who had lived in the area in the early 1900's.

We went back to the Mountain Man BBQ for pizza and it was yummy!
