I'm WAY behind in posts!
MORGANTOWN, WV:
This was another one-nighter on a college campus. I used to have family here, but they moved away after college so I was confined to the Hotel Morgan, which was haunted!
A nice town as far as West Virginia is concerned...
UTICA, NY:
Utica, NY was great the second time around, but COLD!
We got off the tour bus and could hardly move. It was about -15 F when we arrived.
We stayed at this really cool historic hotel called Hotel Utica.
I stayed at a Radisson the last time I was there so this amazing hotel was a nice surprise.
We had to change rooms a couple times due to our heat not working and a burst pipe, but I absolutely loved this hotel!
One of my favorite Vietnamese restaurants in the country is in Utica.
There's just something about Pho Mekong House of Noodles that just does it for me.

I also had a pretty cool encounter with some Bosnians in a Bosnian-run coffee shop.
I walked in and ordered a coffee from the guys behind the counter and his friend was sitting at the counter. We start talking about music and they start playing Bosnian music for me (which rocks) and then in walks another guy with a plate full of Bosnian food. They asked if I'd like to try some, so I did. I can't remember what the dish was called, but it consisted of mashed potatoes, sausage wrapped in cabbage, and homemade bread. Really delicious!
