Bierer's Deli, Buchanan
I like those windows that run across the top above the awnings.
Random 5:
1) We moved here to Botetourt County in 2008. Just like all our previous moves, schools were always our first concern when researching an area. We loved Botetourt for their school ratings and the fact that it was a little rural, not too far out, but not in the city of Roanoke. We still absolutely love it here. I found this video clip featuring Botetourt so you can see why we love where we live! Let me know if you recognize anything in the video!
2) We went to watch our minor league Red Sox play last night. That's always a good time!
3) I worked on some genealogy yesterday and found out that a great grandfather of mine was a Hessian Soldier. His name was Jean Baptiste Schneider. More research to do!
4) Tonight starts the 3 day Civil War reenactment in Buchanan. Yep, we're going!
5) Another blogger, I can't remember who so I apologize if it was YOU and I am not giving you proper credit but anyways, mentioned this show on their blog and I've gotten a bit hooked! It is called The Returned. It is in French but has subtitles. It's on Netflix. Here's a trailer:
Have a great weekend! Be safe!
Don't forget to take your camera with you to the reinactment!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wonderful place to live. Looking forward to pics of the reenactment.
ReplyDeleteGreat post today, Tanya! You enjoy the Civil War re-enactment... doubt I will go being the stick in the mud that I am... LOL
ReplyDeleteYou live in a really pretty part of the state, Tanya. The Civil War reenactment sounds fun--take lots of pictures! There are different Civil War activities coming up over the next year around here to recognize the 150th anniversary.
ReplyDeleteLoved that pic!!
ReplyDeleteGood morning Tanya, nice shot and this is a real interesting 5. I enjoyed watching both videos. The first one show a bridge I saw in another post on Linda's blog. She and her husband visited it recently. I am going to share your link with her once I finish here. Her link is:

The movie is very similar to a theme of a new series on the TV but I can't remember its name.
Thanks for visiting and have a great weekend.
Always enjoy my visits to the Roanoke area.
ReplyDeleteenjoy the weekend!
ReplyDeleteYou can polish up your French!
ReplyDeleteLove that little video and the grill!
I took my kids to the Salem Red Sox game years ago when they were kids. As someone who is originally from Boston the real Red Sox are part of my DNA.
ReplyDeleteI sure wish I could visit Buchanan during the re-enactment. I hope you'll be taking your camera with you. We've been in the Botetourt several times and really like the area.
ReplyDeleteYes, you must take the camera for that reenactment.
ReplyDeleteThe building's quite lovely. That deli would draw me right inside.
I love old places like this!

I'm so impressed: a Hessian soldier! And what a great place to live. Hope the historical re-enactment went well. Bonny
ReplyDeleteI took a little time to watch the videos. I can see why you picked this town to be your home. It looks wonderful. Loved seeing the food on offer..that burger - Wow! When do you ever find time to do genealogy too :). Busy young lady. Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the video of Botetourt Co! So much that I miss about Virginia! And the trailer DOES sound good. May have to get it! :-)
ReplyDeleteThe reenactment will be lots of fun for your camera and you.
ReplyDeleteAnd, RED SOX!
We moved to Botetourt in 2002. Thanks for posting the Botetourt tourism video. I have to agree, this is a beautiful place to live. I saw Marie Gibbs of Virginia Mtn. Vineyards in the video. We're lucky enough to live across the road from their place. One of our daughters is currently thru-hiking on the AT! I could go on and on... and we do enjoy those Salem Red Sox games : )
