Saw a billboard in Scott County today and it read...."Visit Wise County, the county of tourism". Thought taht was pretty funny considering that most all of Wise county is now one big huge strip mine. I went across Black mountain yesterday, on the Virginia side, it was all strip mined, but as soon as you turn the curve into Kentucky, no sign at all of any strip mining. I know it is different up near Jenkins, but down and around in Lynch, Benham, and Cumberland, no strip mining at all.
