Mountains are not a 100% guarantee against tornadoes. Depending on where you grew up in Virginia, you might have heard your older family members say that the mountains protected us from tornadoes`. I used to give thanks for the Blue Ridge Mountains each time I heard about a twister somewhere else.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.
