Thread: So, my sister-in-law was heading back to Missouri...........

I used the Map program on an iPhone to take a look.
Found the blue roof (thanks for that)
And then I was briefly able to switch to a street view.
Very interesting.
But as I tried to navigate around, my lack of skill betrayed me.

Anyway, one thing I did find out . . .
This is the city dump: -

Transfer Station

Alleghany County opened the transfer station in July of 1996 and it is located on Valley Ridge Road. The transfer station is open to County residents only (including the Town of Iron Gate), Monday thru Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and on Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to noon. Only acceptable waste as allowed under Virginia Regulations VA672-20-10, Section 5.1.C.16 shall be deposited at the transfer station. For questions concerning acceptable waste, fees, holiday hours, etc., contact the Transfer Station Superintendent at (540) 965-1626.

I looked it up on my iPhone Map program.
Learned three things:
1. little blue roofs aren't that rare
2. that building is not full height; it's a converted garage or work shed
3. we are adjacent to the City Dump! -
