A Walk To The Depot!

Returning from Snowshoe on Saturday, the good wife had to visit her shrine. The religious experience that I am referring to is the Elkins Sewing Center. When you are a true quilter, it is always a wonderful venture to stop and see the new fabrics and learn new quilting techniques. Judy does love to sew.


I, on the other hand, walked up the street to the Elkins Depot Welcome Center. Located in the heart of downtown Elkins, the welcome center is in the historic Western Maryland Depot which was built in 1908 and completely refurbished in the mid-1990's. The folks have a small museum and a gift shop. It is certainly worth checking out.


















I also noticed that the trees were planted in memory of a GSC student. His father owns an insurance company across the street. During the renovations of the depot, Mr. Bialek paid for the plantings in memory of his son who was killed in an automobile accident.
