Wow, the 100th post! 

Every so often I like to take a moment and talk about Noke News and a little on how this all came about. (And, as it turned out, my birthday was during this week. So, I kinda took the week off from my active photo and note taking duties for the site.)

Thank You

First on the list is a thanks to you for reading. Some of you have lived in Roanoke your entire life, others moved here some years ago. And still others lived here once before and even though now living miles away are still interested in some of the happenings in and around the City.

No matter your reason for visiting, this site is basically my little corner of the web where I can write about something we all share in common, a fondness for the Roanoke area.

And, through the site and with most every post, it’s my intention to provide reasons (informal testimonials if you will) of instances where Roanoke is evolving or unique and ultimately explain why I choose to continue living here. Roanoke is not perfect, but certainly is a one-of-a-kind kinda place and that’s all I hope to show.

What am I forgetting?

What else would you like to read about in the Roanoke area? And what would you like to see pictures of? Contact me directly or leave a comment below and I’ll do my best to take some photos and write up a post about a topic you recommend.
