Charleston, WV


 War memorial in front of the capitol and a magnolia tree that was all in bloom and smelled wonderful.

Two views of the capitol building,which was surrounded by a very impressive complex of buildings.  The capitol was changed 5 times over the years, Wheeling and Charleston vied for the honor and the original capitol burned down.  This one has been here since 1932.

The governors mansion and the view from the mansion--Charleston University.  We had hoped to get a tour of the mansion but we were too late.
