Some bad news: Secret Sandwich Society caught on fire on November 5. 😭💔 They are planning to rebuild and if you'd like to help them fund their employee's wages during this time, you can donate here: www.gofundme.com/f/give-to-the-staff-at-sss Watch our other West Virginia vlogs: kzfaq.info/sun/PLZKRTK1yCEM5a4PAiayjCpGAkRdeCeb5G Safety is our #1 priority and we want to stress that this adventure, and all future adventures, will be done responsibly and with the health of others in mind. Here are the steps we are taking everyday, including in these videos: 😷Masks and face coverings. We wear these anytime we are near others outside and especially indoors. If we don’t have a mask on in a video, it’s 99% because there was no one around. ⏰ Exploring early. We normally start at sunrise anyway because of less crowds, but especially so with COVID. We have been starting our days before sunlight so we can limit our interactions. 🧼 Washing and sanitizing our hands, especially after touching anything outside of the van. 🚐 Being in the van 95% of the time when we’re not filming. The adventures we share are a small sliver of our lives. We are staying in the van all day everyday when working and the only time we leave is to do laundry, get gas, or go to the store. 6️⃣ Keeping our distance. We are trying to stay at least 6 ft from others, which truthfully isn’t always possible (and then we make sure we cover our face).

I am 90 years old. Born in w.va. Watched the construction of the bridge. My mother and grandmother stood with me on a big rock outcrop one day and watched workmen walk across that span on a steel support that was only about a foot wide. This was common practice during that construction and there were no hand rails. Itwas terrifying to watch. Have no idea what the fatality rate was, but those guys were really good

So glad you were able to experience Fayetteville (even if it was one day, in the rain, and during a pandemic)! There is actually a great spot right across from Long Point trailhead where you guys could have overnighted called Arrowhead Bike Farm. Super cool bike shop/restaurant/beer garden/campground/farm that offers both electric and non-electric camping (bonus they have a station for cleaning bikes that you could have used to shower Kona). Fayetteville is definitely a long weekend destination, there is so much to do there that we go at least once a year and do something new each time we visit. Thank you so much for showing the world how beautiful and special WV is, as a native I have a deep bond with WV, and l love when people share how special she is with the world.

The Gorgonzola cheese there is ridiculous. Top 5 pizza spots, and we’ve had pizza all over America. Three spots to also see: The overhead views of the Gorge from Hawk’s Nest, the ground view of the New River from Gauley Bridge and the awesome Cathedral Falls in the same town. You did it right!

My father would take me back there to visit my grandparents when I was a child. Last November I took my own family for a week long visit and it just felt like home even though Michigan has always been my home. West Virginia is a beautifully stunning state with long, rich history. So glad you were able to experience it’s beauty for yourselves. And a side note... go back and do the bridge walk sometime. I did it when we were there and it was unbelievable!! You won’t be disappointed.

And just like that I am done with your WV series. Great overall series! Awesome locations, awesome food, awesome adventures. I grew up in Ohio, moved to Pittsburgh for 10 years, and now am in North Carolina for the past few years. I have visited West Virginia many times and have frequented the New River Gorge. You shed a very positive light on the state and showed what this state has to offer. West Virginia is a simply great state for outdoor enthusiasts. If you get back to the New River Gorge area, I recommend a visit to Sandstone Falls and of course whitewater rafting. I have done both the Lower New River (many times) and the Gauley River during fall release from the dam. Not sure what your comfort level would be but both are awesome with great scenery. There are Class V rapids on both rivers but the Gauley is definitely more intense. A really fun ride but everything is just bigger on that river (during the fall).

I loved the gristmill...such a beautiful place that would make for a gorgeous picture on the wall!! I don’t know if I have ever seen such vibrant fall colors and to see them from the drone shots was an added bonus! You two rock with all your vlogs...I really enjoy watching everything you post! And, an added bonus is getting to see Konie Bear! Thank you for showing us such spectacular sites! 🍁💛🧡🤎❤️🍁

Watching you guys latest episode with my Sunday morning coffee is something I look forward to entire week. Loved the beautiful colors that you showed with drone footage at the mill. That surely was a picturesque mill! FYI... if you ever come across a PIES and PINTS during your future travels, do try their "Black Bean Cheddar, jalapeño, salsa, cilantro & Creme fraiche". Trust me it is a unique and unexpected yummilicous flavor!!! When we go there, we definitely get one of that to share!!!

Loved this video! I live about 45 minutes north of Fayetteville and my wife, dog, and I come down here all time. Great hiking and climbing. Secret sandwich is a must (it caught fire and is being rebuilt currently). My wife and I got our engagement pics done at Babcock and actually got married on the Hawks Nest overlook.

I love your channel and the personalities you two bring. My wife and I enjoy watching all your stuff. My family have been roadtrippers for over seven years. We do things a little different. Mostly because we have kids. I started making short videos of our trips years back but I have been stepping it up over the past year and evolving it into a sort of Vlog and getting some ideas from you two. Thanks for the inspiration!!!

I grew up in Oak Hill (just down the road from Fayetteville) and it makes me so happy when vloggers like yourself visit the area and speak so highly of it. But, just a hint, plan on more than two days so you can drive the gorge, walk to Kaymoor, hit up Hawk’s Nest, go over to Grandview, Summerville dam, Carnival Ferry….

Welcome to our home, God’s Country. Too bad for you for the rainy weather but we were delighted since it is only the second rain in seven weeks ( we are in a terrible drought) You were on a time crunch but you missed a waterfall in Hawks Nest State Park - Turkey Run Falls. About an hour hike from the lodge under the cliff line. Not recommended in rainy weather as rock scrambling is required and can get slippery. Know you guys like waterfalls. Please come agIn.

I wouldn’t worry so much about the national parks and paying to vlog! Keep filming small towns, eateries especially tacos and ice cream lol and film smaller parks and trails. My husband and I both watch and love your videos along with a few other you tubers. Your videos give us great ideas of places we’d like to see or just enjoy seeing from your prospective. Plus we love Kona 🐾
@AdventuresofAplusK3 жыл бұрын
Thank you Heather! We plan to keep filming the National Parks and will demonetize those videos if we can’t get free commercial approval (we cannot afford the expensive permits unfortunately). We still want to share them, but also love sharing the smaller, lesser known places too! We think there will be more attention on national park videos now and definitely don’t want to get in trouble. Kona sends a cuddle your way! ❤️
