 Life In Logan - 11/14/2010

Logan, WV, gets a very bad rap as far as I'm concerned. Yes, we have problems, like most other places do, however I have had lots of opportunities go live elsewhere and I choose to stay in my hometown. You will not find friendlier people anywhere, period! Our radio station and local paper do a great job of keeping people informed of what is going on in our communities. There are lots of churches in the area great places to eat (Morrison's Drive In, Fat Jack's, A Taste Of Home Diner, Parkway, Janet's, 317 The Steakhouse, etc). Route 119 has made travel to Charleston and to Pikeville very easy. There are lots of good, locally owned businesses too, including SAKS Jewelers, Antique Junkshun, McCormicks and more. Overall life is good in Logan IF the E.P.A. will continue to allow us to mine coal![read more...]
