[Glitterfy.com - *Glitter Photos*]POSTED MONDAY – SEPTEMBER 8, 2008: Hi my fellow West Virginians! As you may know I’ve been having computer troubles the last few months and while I am back on track I am still working to get a new photo program that allows me to create new WV graphics on here. I am also WORKING TWO JOBS NOW so it’s hard getting on here as much as I used to but instead of closing the page I hope you will understand if I do not get back with you as quickly as I used to or if I have missed your birthday. Yes, I am still adding any WV friend that sends a request. I will do my best to get on here before the holidays so you can get the ‘special’ WV graphics from this page as promised. Thanks for your understanding & all the wild and wonderful WV comments you send my way. GOD BLESS! Annette Marie

HAPPY 145TH BIRTHDAY WEST VIRGINIA ON JUNE 20TH, 2008!Because the majority of WV sits below the Mason-Dixon Line it is considered a southern state.During the Civil War- soldiers filled both Union and Confederate ranks. Nicknamed the ‘Mountain State’ due to excessive ruggedness, WV citizens are mostly Democratic, maintain an alcoholic control state & disfavor the death penalty.The largest city is the capital in Charleston and the state’s major resource relies on the mining of coal. The highest point is in Spruce Knob with the lowest along the Potomac River & border states include: VA, PA, OH, MD & KY.Where is your favorite place in West ‘By God’ Virginia?

glitter-graphics.com(January 12, 2009) Thanks for visiting the Best of WV Fan Site! I will try my best to do holiday graphics in 2009 like last year but with my work & home schedule it may not always be possible. To ensure you do get one, please send me a comment or holiday graphic a few days prior to the actual holiday & I’ll try my best to respond.
