“Welcome To The Whitespring”

My eleven-year old and I enjoy playing Fallout 76 together. He thinks it is particularly cool that the game is set in West Virginia — which is where we have our family cabin — and that so many locations in the game (Uncanny Caverns/Lost World Caverns and Lewisburg) are real-life locations near that cabin.
