Reply #25: I've been learning that the last few weeks... [View All]

I've been researching the area since I'm planning on a genealogical research trip there.

This is a place where the only "culture" seems to be the area around Deep Creek Lake, and they think Applebee's is high cuisine. Every inn and bed and breakfast I checked out is 2 star or so. Cheesy decor (to be expected from country bumpkins who have never seen real style), and according to something I read, there are more churches per capita in that area of the state than any other (possibly even the country?). There is nothing there, there.

Can't say I'm excited about visiting the area, but I am eager to dig up some more details for my book. If I drive by the VFW, I'll make sure to ask for Mr. Engelbach and give him everyone's regards. A nice loogie right between the eyes should do the trick! :D
