Pendleton County, Where the drive to anywhere else begins with a mountain.Oakwood Estates, where the rocks in the road are bigger than your truck.Where the teachers know every student by name, in the whole county.Where the pickup is older than the driver and neither is finished yet.Where the teenagers have no concept of a toll road.Where the Forest Service campground looks straight across at the Rocks.Where there is no hospital, and everyone knows exactly how long it takes to get to Petersburg.Where the pizza is upstairs and the view out of the window is Seneca Rocks.Where "directly" means in a little while, and everybody is content with that.Spruce Knob, perhaps the closest some of us will get to Heaven.Where the fire department is volunteers who left their own supper to come.Where the Lutheran parish is five churches and one of them is here.

That is not the same as nothing being here. It means nobody has told us yet — and a business in Brushy Run is exactly the sort that never turns up in a search, because there is nowhere for it to turn up.

If you run something here, or you know who does, it takes a minute to add. A name is enough to start with.
