Don't forget the spa. You can probably lie around with cucumbers over
your eye sockets and mud on your legs. They have hot springs there too.

 

The Greenbrier itself is within the National Radio Quiet Zone, so
scanner activity would be fairly light once you get there.

resort in
	West Virginia is restoring a steam engine and plans to begin
regular
	passenger service from Union Station in DC to the Greenbrier,
starting
	in 2012. I know that there are a lot of rail fans on this group
-- it
	will be interesting to listen to (and see!) a steam train
chugging
	through downtown on a regular basis.
	 
	And if you have $10^4 dollars that you're not doing anything
with, why
	not schedule a ride and a stay at the Greenbrier? I noticed that
just a
	round of golf is an affordable $405. With drinks at the 19th
hole,
	that's about equivalent to an HP-1.
