Good Morning to all, with Spring in the air and Summer around the corner it is a great time to start making summer plans. Enjoy the wildlife, rivers and cool mountain air.

The weather makes us all anxious for spring/summer activities. This picture of the Mountain Valley Properties golf team at the fundraiser last year for Shavers Fork Fire and Rescue. What a great time and a great golf course. Each hole at the Raven Golf Course is so different so if you want to come play this year or even come for the fundraiser for Shavers Fork call us and ask for a special discount for a weekend in Pocahontas County.

After finding out I was having a little blogging troubles, we are back in the saddle just one day after Snowshoe Mountain Resort closed skiing for the 08/09 Season. I was initially so excited about blogging but there is always something to learn and it takes me a while to catch on. Anyway, hope that is the end of my blogging problems. It is a beautiful day today and hope to go out shortly and take Chico for a walk. We have a nice walk into Fassifern Fields its about a mile 1/2 up and 1/2 down. It's time to start walking the golf course and picking up some golf balls. Talk to you soon. Hey keep an eye on the site for upcoming events!
