Danville's a nice town. I was there recently for a job interview. Not
much there really, aside from a racetrack and the town itself. But its
fairly close to the Appalachian trail and some of the state parks
nearby are pretty phenomenal (i.e., FairyStone State Park). However
like most of the area the school are underfunded, meth has hit the
area really hard and aside from NASCAR, country and bluegrass there's
not a lot to do.
