Cripple Creek, Virginia


Submitted by VTLinda

Was an iron mining town at the turn of the 1900's. Boasts a total of about 50 residents now - nestled deep in the Appalachians. A true, real piece of mountain culture - visit the shot tower used to make minnie balls for the Civil War, or Crockett's Chapel, where the land was donated by Davy Crockett's nephew in 1848, or Yonce's Store where a resident bought oranges in the 1920's and when his wife didn't know how to "fix 'em", they threw them to the hogs, because they warn't fitten to eat. It's also where the bluegrass favorite "Goin' up Cripple Creek" originated in the late 1800's. I love the place because it hasn't changed in over 50 years, possibly even a hundred. Folks are just who they are - and in my opinion, they're just wonderful!

First off, I wanted to tell you that I think what you are doing is freakin awsome. I would totally do that if I could. I am really glad that you are going for your dreams. anyway, about my town, well, I was reading in your article that you like small places..... well, Danville is def. it. our population is right at 50,000. Our hang out....is the mall....its a slow town.....with fast people..... we are literally right on the border of NC, so there really is alot of "southern hospitality"....you have never had sweet tea until you try ours...lol... we are def. growing....but we are really not as big as we sound... Danville is a ton of fun, and i think that you should def. stop in....The town right next to me...(where i went to Hargrave Military Academy) well, there population is a full 1,298! the truly amazing thing about chatham is that it has ONE stoplight.......and it was the last confederacy way back when......amazing right. I think that you should really stop by! It is totally cool with you stayin in the guest room if you like...
thanks for your time man!

good luck!

Springfield, Virginia


Submitted by Rachel Edwards

My hometown can honestly be described as dull to those who have lived here their whole lives. But, for a first time visitor it can be quite the adventure. We are twenty minutes from the amazing nation's capital of Washington, DC. This opens up a whole opportunity to those wanting to do something unique, by going to explore the place that makes our country what it is. People from Springfield often are caught going to DC for a day trip with their friends, just to have a good time. Visiting here can only benefit those who love America.
