Heart Of Appalachia: Transcend The Mountain
Transcend The Mountain is a short film by Mountain Roots Productions. It tells the story of my father's near death experience, and how inspiration can be found in the most unlikely places to transcend individual and societal limitations imposed upon oneself. Nothing changes until we choose to change.

    You Gotta mention the Military Museum ! This Museum is run by a 91 year old man who has given his heart and soul in dedication to creating a legacy for veterans from the area. It is a can't miss museum if you love Military history. It's something that Washington DC would have - it's that impressive. Ask for Tony Whitlow ( 91 years old and proud of the military history)

    GCW girls dated and some later married Cadets from Greenbrier Military School and both attended the Old Stone Presperterian Church. Your video is good but you missed two of the most historical items in the history of Lewisburg!!!!

    I went there for the VA 8-10 Little League Baseball State tournament when I was ten. The hotel had mold in it and half my team went home with mold poisoning. Overall the city was just very boring and the only fun thing we did besides baseball was go to sonic and get cherry limeades and slushies. Some of my friends made states at 12 and opted to stay in West Virginia and drive to Richlands for the tournament.

    Can you please provide some verifiable proof about this collusion between groups to "force people from their land" and the relationship between inbreeding? It sounds excitingly conspiratorial --- and get much attention, but I've never seen or heard any quantifiable evidence about such "collusion".
