Currently obsessed with Appalachian folklore and scary stories. Is there anywhere else in North American like this?!

Right: my wildflower patch, just a little over a year since I planted 1" plugs. It's messy; it was prettier last month when red lobelia and monkeyflower bloomed along with the Sullivant's coneflower.

But look what else: blue lobelia (left)! Another gift from the Universe along with the foxglove beardtongue. It's just like they say at the Arc Of : make a space where natives can flourish, and they'll come back on their own.

If Jason Aldean wants to write a song about small towns why doesn't he write about the abject poverty, unemployment in the teens, meth, opioid abuse and poor healthcare?

Mooi tweeluik (en misschien nog een deel 3?) over de regio in West-Virginia (USA) van .
Een streek bekend om de steenkoolwinning die al meerdere decennia hard getroffen door werkloosheid, armoede, leegloop en verslaving aan drugs/medicijnen. Bekend omdat het van Democraten omschakelde naar Republikeinen bij de verkiezingen van 2016 (Trump).

Is it cultural appropriation when a briarhopper fixes coon-ass food? (Too late. I already did.)

@JaneHadley What do you want to read about or plan to write about? The theory is that an page or two with those topics as hashtagged keywords will lead folks to you. So far, I'm not finding much regional in where I live, but a little about , , , , and other things I'm interested in.
