Jenisfamous Conquers West Virginia!
Today, I'm off to...
Morgantown, West Virginia!
While my family has many times driven through this fine state, I have never before stopped and done anything there.
Being from Virginia, I feel very at home in places that look like this. I like trees that look to me like the "right" kind of trees. Many years after thinking that I liked the trees of my home state, and that the trees of New Hampshire made me feel kind of alienated in their tallness and foreignness, I read a study that correlated the unfamiliarity of flora with depression; apparently, "being around familiar trees," like getting up early and exercising, are natural antidepressants.
In West Virginia, you can...
...go to preaching school!
...become a beauty queen!
...mine for oil!
August 21 (Monday)
Hatfields in the Mountainlair
West Virginia University

Just wanted to say that I loved the show. Hope you come back sometime!
I'm going to be in morgantown next week. I'm performing 45 minutes north in uniontown PA, but I'll be staying with a friend in WV for the weekend.
Thanks, Anonymous!!!
