<p>Not the Rockies, but beautiful nonetheless. The New River Valley is terrific for outdoorsy types. In fact Outside mag ranked Blacksburg in the top 10 of best places to live. Found some pictures of campus to share:</p>

<p>Maybe someday I will get out west to see the big ones, but the Allegheny and Blue Ridge mountains sure are pretty to me.</p>
