So I bought to WV guide books (one for scenic drives and the other an explorer&#8217;s guide) and decided it&#8217;s time to get to know my state better.<\/p>\n<p>Our drive for last weekend, New River Gorge, was canceled by the brakes on the car acting wonky (we replaced the rotors and pads both on Wednesday) but this week&#8211;shiny new brakes in place&#8211;we took our first drive to some place I hadn&#8217;t been before.<\/p>\n<p>Just a few miles outside of Westover is the only covered bridge in Monongalia county.
