Cole's favorite truck, Mater

My husband is from Preston Co. WV old coal mining country. We hadn't been back to his roots for a couple years. Me, Ronnie and my daughter and her family went there to visit for the weekend. We attended the Buckwheat festival, ate Buckwheat cakes and sausage, went to a horse pulling contest and attended church where he went as a little boy. Only 17 attended church on Sun. I wish I had a picture, the church was built in 1861.
