Other than maybe driving through West Virginia, that state's claim to fame as far as I'm concerned was that my cousin lived there. We spent a Thanksgiving there one year and took the day trip to Washington D.C. That was the first time I had ever been to the Capitol, though my wife had done a family trip during her teens. So she had a little knowledge of the place before I saw it. Now my cousin lives in Springfield, Missouri, and I've gotten to see her more there.
We ended up spending most of our time in Morgantown, at the northern edge of the state. It was a very picturesque ride through the state, no doubt as about 78.1% of the state is a forest (Most Forested States 2023). I thought Georgia had a lot of trees but it is only 8th on the list with 66.5% whereas West Virginia is third on the list. So even if you're only driving through it you will enjoy the drive.
Until next time,
