According to history (and Wikipedia) Grant, Pendleton, and Hardy co are all considered the Panhandle.

But Berkeley, Morgan, and Jefferson residents know we are the "real" panhandle, lol

 Glad to see the tag moving .......

Correct..

Back in in 2010 Vatrader called it the ping-pong tag Elroy suggested added the whole Panhandle (according to wiki) to get more people to join in... But to prevent it from becoming to big just added two counties--

[FONT=&quot]Hopefully to get more lurkers and players it was suggested that the eastern panhandle tag-o-rama be expanded...to more of the eastern panhandle....so without further delay.... two new counties have been added... Mineral and Hampshire Counties.... [/FONT]

The problem with adding more and more territory is, once it's out there, its out there for awhile.

Anyone else have difficulty figuring out Spaulding's personality? He was awful quiet on our ride today.

Grab: Jefferson Co Fairgrounds - Old Leetown Pike & Fairground lane. Spaulding is at the base of my right hand mirror

I was trying to figure out a good place for him that hadn't already been used for Lucky (RIP, friend). We went down 9 west and took a an orange detour for a road named for a "4-star" ranked engine that had to be saved by the GovernMent. I was going to place him near a bridge named for a past governor, but it was rather busy and with the rain we're supposed to get tonight I figured it was better to move to higher ground. Just up on the right I saw another water feature up on a hill. It's across the road from a trailer park that looks like it was named after the top Union general and ex-president, but they forgot the "r" and added a "t" on the sign. It's a short dead end dirt road that's unmarked but easy to see.

Near this spot is a black sediment fence, and near that fence are three rocks. Spaulding is hiding under some leaves by the 2 smaller rocks

It had been too long since i been on bike ....so just had to make time today.....

New Tag.....

Just West of Inwood WV on a two digit road with the sum of 6.... if you go to top of the mountain you have gone way too far...
