SSS Review of Front Porch Market & Grill , THE PLAINS, VIRGINIA

                                     



   Front Porch Market & Grill 

                                                              
  6483 Main Street
 The Plains, VA   

                                                                    

 http://frontporchtheplains.com/

                                                              

Centered on Virginia Route 55 (John Marshall Highway) and Virginia Route 245 (Old Tavern Road) 

                                                         
       The historic railroad house has undergone an extensive renovation in 2015 - and is now transformed into a restaurant emphasizing fresh and local ingredients with a market featuring unique treasures.                                               

  On  Monday , 11/23/15 , we celebrated Rhonda's birthday by going to a place of her choice to eat lunch. 

She chose the Front  Porch Market and Grill because she heard it was new and others had enjoyed their meal there.

It was an easy to find place and easy to park on street.

We were greeted with smiles and  got to choose upstairs or downstairs. We let the waitress decide. So we went upstairs to a nice area with rustic decor .  Plenty of room and comfortable.

As you see below -- brown paper and crayons over a table cloth made our day !!

We ordered and had Rhonda open her gift ! 
Can you tell if she is enjoying her gift ??

Didn't take long to order our lunch and wasn't a long wait for the meal!

Presentation was very nice . Colorful dishes !!

Sandwiches were delicious, potato salad and coleslaw were wonderful and chips made fresh !!
For dessert -- Rhonda chose warm brownie with vanilla ice cream -- OH MY -- loved it!! 
We made Rhonda share, by the way !

If you get the opportunity, go have a great meal and enjoy the 

Front Porch !

Our video will let you know how much we enjoyed it! 

WARNING the video you are about to see may make you laugh !!

I had to keep saying the word FRESH because Kelly didn't like us using the same words all the time! So as the oldest sister , I had to do my duty and tease the baby sister !!~~Cathy

Reach for the STAR --- Roanoke, VA !!

      

http://www.roanoke.com/life/mill-mountain-star-turns/article_80cdad1b-ddce-5f14-aa05-4c867a8cc14b.html?mode=image

      

  Another of our stops on our 

2015 Sassy Silver Sisters vacation 

was the

 STAR !!

On Saturday we tried to find the STAR and thought for sure it was an easy little trip because we could see it ! 

Well, we tried and tried and up the mountain we went -- to a private residence -- oh my !! 

Down the mountain and decided we may want to get directions. DUH!

So our friend Charlie ( concierge in the executive lounge of  Roanoke Hotel & Conference Center http://www.hotelroanoke.com/ ) told us how easy it was. I told him we tend to do things backwards and he gave us directions with a map and everything ! 

Thanks again , Charlie !

Sunday we went to the star first thing ! YES,  it was easy to get to with proper directions.

Beautiful view -- sooo beautiful !! 

You have to go when you are in the area .

If I could go back once a month , I would be happy !
When  they salvage items from historic buildings and places you see a bit of history !

They have soooo much to look at -- it took quite a long time. The staff was smiling and very helpful in answering ALL our questions.  
They also have souvenirs for you to purchase -- which I did !


Koiner Kulp Thomas --- https://www.facebook.com/KoinerThomasBDS -- Robert's big sister was inviting and took the time to have a conversation with us. 

 Robert Kulp ---https://www.facebook.com/RobertKulpBDS  --  was gracious enough to have someone take a picture of all 3 sisters with him.  

 I was very happy to be able to go.

If I find anymore pictures, I will add later on .

AND ,YES -- I got a t-shirt and a mug -- love them !!

Cathy Wants To Know --- Who Remembers The Waltons??

The Sassy Silver Sisters went on our yearly road trip and on the way to Roanoke we decided to stop and visit Walton's Mountain.

Go to Schuyler, Virginia, to tour the actual home place that inspired the beloved television series.

First is the store -- soooo cool -- lots of autographed books! The clerk was actually a relative of Earl Hamner and knew a lot of real information about how his family was portrayed in the Walton's TV show. 

 I bought a Goodnight John Boy coffee mug !!



                                                                    Circa 1942

The Walton's Mountain Country Store B and B was known as Walker’s Store

back in thee old days because it was operated by Willie Walker,

the son of Schuyler Walker head of one of the earliest families to settle

in the area who gave it the name of Schuyler.

For many years the store was vacant and seeking escape from that multitude

of brothers and sisters as a teenager I used to hideout there

for the solitude I needed in which to write.

We walked over to the family home of Earl Hamner.

My understanding is the home was purchased and rehabbed to it's former glory. The furnishings were replaced as well. 

 We walked  over to the church ----

Beautiful church !!

After that we headed up the road to the old school which has been converted to a museum ---

WALTON'S MOUNTAIN MUSEUM is located in the Piedmont Region foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Schuyler (Sky-ler), Virginia. Opened on October 16, 1992, this building was Schuyler's ca.1924 high & elementary school until 1955, grade school until 1991, and it is now our community center. "The Waltons" creator and John-Boy's alterego, Earl Hamner, grew up in the home across the street. WMM attracted as many as 90,000 guests in a year from all 50 states and 20 foreign countries!

It was fun -- saw a lot of things to point at and say I REMEMBER THAT.
 We had a wonderful time going through each room !
A video was also playing every 1/2 hour or so.

I hope you can find time to visit this area ! You won't regret it !
