Which place? The Devil's Backbone Brewery around Wintergreen? That's still my top pick. Only problem is all of the gang from Danville and Roanoke will have a pretty good poke of a drive to get there. Meh, we'll see ... soon.

WE3RX7 · 02-03-2009, 05:41 PM

Yea, thats the place. I dont want to hear any wining about the drive to get there, lol... if I can do it from DC, they can come from danville

Saturday February 21st, 2009

Schedule:

10:00 am - Meet all those that want to start early at the mall (others can meet us for lunch). Usual place, parking lot adjacent to Shaker's Restaurant @ River Ridge Mall.
10:30-10:45 am- Leave for Appomattox Courthouse National Park (approx. 30 min. drive) This is on Route 24 near Appomattox, VA. Neat place for pictures and some of you history buffs may want to walk around the park. I believe the price is minimal, $3/person.
12:00 pm (flexible) - Head north on Route 24 to the geographical center of Virginia (approx. 30 min. drive). Did you see the map I added to the website? I'm intrigued by this, hope you are too. There isn't much to see really, just a way sign and an old barn/gas station. Not a big place to park either, just a couple of quick photo's.
12:30 pm - Head west/northwest to Devil's Backbone Brewing Company for a late lunch. DBBC (approx. 1 hr. drive) Despite the name, this not a sleazy bar.

1:30 - 3:00 pm - Lunch ... For those that don't want to drive the countryside, meet us at DBBC for lunch.
3:00 pm - After lunch you can scatter! Northern folks can head home from here obviously. Southern folks can drive over to the Blue Ridge Parkway (via Rt. 56) for a great ride home. Those tired and worn out can get back home using your quickest route.

The geographic center of Virginia
