The 1960s was a dynamic period in our nation’s history, and it was felt in several counties of Virginia as waters from the Roanoke and Blackwater rivers merged at Smith Mountain Gap in the early part of the decade to form what we now know as Smith Mountain Lake. This work is a reflection of life prior to Bedford County becoming a tourist destination, with some stories that happen now that Bedford County is a tourist town.
