Abingdon is the county seat of Washington County. It has a very nice historic downtown district and Main Street area with lots of shops, restaurants, and a busy Farmer's Market. Some wedding attendees also told me of a local brewery and winery. Abingdon is also the home of Barter Theatre, the State Theatre of Virginia. It is also the final stop in the 35-mile long Virginia Creeper Trail for hikers, bikers and horse riders. The Appalachian Trail is also nearby.
A trolley shuttled guests from the Comfort Inn Suites to the wedding, which was held on the grounds of Clint's parents' Abingdon home. With the Blue Ridge Mountains as a backdrop, the wedding was both magical and beautiful. It was good to see Marika and Clint again and I wish them a lifetime of happiness!
