A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO A PERFORMANCE







In 1999 through 2003 THE MOUNTAIN WOMEN performed in the West Virginia State Park system. Have you ever heard of Kumbrabow? It is a lovely park in the middle of nowhere, WV. After you leave the hard road there is still miles of gravel road to travel until you reach the dirt road. We performed in a garage with, sometimes, 6 to 10 people there. But the ranger in charge loved us so we went back every year.



One park had, apparently, heard nasty rumors about us before we even got there. Check out the picture on the left. RABIES WARNING...THE MOUNTAIN WOMEN are coming!



Often times towns, like Farmington, WV, would roll out the red carpet for THE MOUNTAIN WOMEN. It was always such a compliment.



On our way to Tomlinson State Park we encountered a terrible storm. Rain, hail, winds and darkness was everywhere. After the storm passed by we stopped to take a picture (right picture) of the unusual sky. When we got home we sent it to a metorogist and were told that it was an "after tornado" sky.
