If you rode from Winchester to Paw Paw, you probably passed through Cross Junction on Route 522. I'm not surprised that you missed it.

VA is a big state, with interesting borders.
It is a long, long way, both in mileage and culture, from Northern Virginia to the far southwest corner of the Commonwealth.

We are dominated here by NY & Phila media markets. Hence, the subconscious tends to view this area as within those "borders" . And being on a southern peninsula surrounded by water on three sides, we are inclined to look north. Does that make any sense?
Absolutely.
