Has anyone else heard that a certain high-ranking West Virginia politico and his wife are buying a place in Canaan Valley?

Joe would be my guess. He was up at Timberline earlier this year for a meet and great thing too. I think some of his relatives may have property up here already.

Not unless I am governor first.....then I will keep T-Line the way it is, put a gondola in at Snowshoe over the lake to develop that side, appoint Andy to the MPC development commitee, and after all that is done I'll hang in the Valley the rest of the time I am in office......

I know, I know! I'm gonna find out where his place is and leave a note suggestin' that he should introduce a bill in the legislature declarin' emminent domain over that holdout property that's standin' in the way of "Almost Heaven."

Now that would be way cool!

That and some tax increment financing for infrastructure improvements at Timberline (new lift) and canaan valley (snowmaking). Best bet for canaan would be to lease the ski area to Chip Chase, he's better at growing snow than Guest Services is at making it!

I'm pretty sure the governor bought a house on Courtland Road. This is great for the area.

Yah, in Deerfield, but my sources can't confirm he's actually closed and settled.

Oh he'll move funds from where ever needed to get the house he wants...Manchins have never had a problem doing that...

......Thank you so much for your appointment there Mr Physics...That was my original plan..leave TL & Canaan to sit forever in a time warp & let SS & MPC (Almost Heaven) take us into the future!...now if that is not possible Baywalker has my complete support!...I'm confused though..I thought the Gov allready had a place at Timberline??!!
