offers its visitors lovely scenery, friendly folks and a leisurely pace. A drive through
our countryside will evoke a sense of serenity as you wind past picturesque farms
with silos and grazing cattle. The colorful barn quilts throughout the county are a
testament to the pride of the residents here.
Vanceburg, the county seat, is a charming town with a riverfront park, historical
walking tour of downtown homes and buildings, restored Visitors Center and
Depot Museum. So come on out to Lewis County and experience a lifestyle far
from the hurried, bustling pace of the big city.

More info
Historians claim that the first valentine was a
poem sent in 1415 by Charles, Duke of Orleans,
to his wife. He was imprisoned in the Tower of
London at the time. In the United States, Miss
Esther Howland is given credit for sending the
first Valentine's Day cards. Commercial
valentines were introduced in the 1800s and now
the date is very commercialized. The town of
Loveland, Colorado, does a large post office
business around February 14.
