Berkley Springs
My brother lives in Virginia. When I visit, sometimes I drive there in one shot, sometimes I break it in two. Mom and I will find a place to stop for the night, where ever we are, when ever we feel. Now I know the title of this piece is Berkley Springs but i feel like talking about Harpers Ferry first. If you don't know about Harpers Ferry, you should google it. John Brown lived in my home town. I learned about him in elementary school. He hated slavery, and he was fighter. What's more American than that! A rebellious freedom fighter! It's why we as a nation always root for the little guy and never The Man. As a kid I assumed this all went down in my home town. We all know where the John Brown house is. Nope. The shit hit the fan in Harpers Ferry. He raided the armory and tried to start a rebellion. Then they killed him. Like I said, Google it. I'm not a historian....
