The entire state has six different interstate systems, meaning, from Charleston, you can reach Cleaveland, Columbus, Cincinnati, Pittsburg Louisville, or Charlotte in four hours or less...Ah, but once you leave the interstate the drive becomes a thing of wonder. Two-lane roads wind up and down th...
