We were up and on the road on our second day heading to some cross stitch stores and to find something to do along the way. We had hoped to tour the Governor’s Mansion in Charleston, WV, but it was closed. Instead we went to the Capital Building. How cool is it that after a passing through a security check, you can walk about the Capital Building.
I haven’t even toured my own state capital but it and other state capitals could be on the list of possible FREE sites to visit.
The building was beautiful with all its marble and trim.
There were brass floor plates for each year you entered. Here’s a cool thing. These are the gowns of all the First Ladies of the state. Some have dolls with miniature dresses. Again, I don’t know if every state does this, but we are textile people so it was of interest.
