One Year ago, today, I posted my first video on #Appalachia and #Appalachians
The decision to change focus on my business was a tough but passionate one.
A week ago, I was convinced I was a complete failure, still do at times, but I am not a quitter.
I don't know if my voice can change the narrative on Appalachia... but I intend to keep trying.
2024 brings fresh topics, ideas, guests, programs. #StayTuned
Continuing my exploration of not caring about anything at the moment.
When hard decisions are required, sometimes you have to remove yourself from the decisions and the world.

I have researched the #HillbillyHighway for over 20 years. My family traveled it, back & forth many times. I've seen the good & the bad of the #Highway of #Appalachians. #GenChat
Join me for this #WikiTree LiveCast as I share some personal stories with my family traveling the Hillbilly Highway.

But, this kid won't be seen. He's my #Dad.
It was his decision to move us for a better life that never materialized.
Why? Join me for the story.

#Appalachia is my home and heart.
Join me and two members as we discuss how we are doing #Genealogy for #Appalachians.
We aren't selling anything. We aren't giving away prizes.
We might share some #Biscuits, #SweetTea, #FamilyHistory, a few #laughs and some #tears over our #Ancestors.
We are a #Community. We love Genealogy.
We tear down #BrickWalls. We #care.
#WikiTree allows us to do that for free so it's available to all.
Spend 45 minutes with us. See our passion.
Sharing #stories with special guests that have traveled this highway, known as Urban #Appalachians, while their roots remain strongly tied to #Appalachia. #FamilyHistory
Understanding the reasons and causes for migration out of Appalachia, to industrial cities, as well as the cultural effects of those left behind & those that moved.

Breakfast of champions: Biscuit with fried chicken, maple bacon, fried egg & sausage gravy.

2023 Appalachia Road Trip: Day One
Hobbit Henge, Weaverville, North Carolina
First night stay and it is in a #Hobbit House. I was not sure if this was for me but I was convinced into it. After the first 10 minutes, I decided I need my own Hobbit House... preferably with plumbing indoors.
This was one of the most #peaceful nights I've had in a long time. #Nature puts on a show.

Satellite view of my childhood home in the New Brunswick Appalachians. The yellow rectangle is where I lived. After I moved out, arsonists burnt down our home. No one was living in it at the time, but my family lost a lot: furniture, our photos, etc. My dad built that place. The lake at the bottom is a place where I often went fishing and where we obtained our winter wood. We brought it home either with a pony team or a dog team. Read the alt text for some interesting trivia. #SatelliteImagery #SatelliteView #Appalachians #NewBrunswick
Rural central New Brunswick, deep in the Canadian Appalachians. View from the top of the hill from where I spent many of my growing-up years. I rode my ponies through those woods, toboganed down those long, steep hills, hiked and skied with my dogs and cats. No place I’ve ever lived can match this area for autumn colours. #NewBrunswick #FallColors #FallColours #JacobsLadder #Appalachians #HayField #Forest #Forests #Sky

Was looking for topography comparisons between the #Rockies and the #Appalachians (to tease a homie about their cute little "mountains" lol). Really glad I clicked through the image search to read this whole post, because I knew the Appalachians were old and that that was nifty, but I had NO idea just HOW old, and I got properly schooled lol
I have to admit something.
My motivations for fighting #fascism & occasionally sounding the alarm on #ClimateChange are largely selfish.
I don't want to suffer. I don't want my family to suffer. I don't want my friends with targets on their backs to suffer and die.
Assuming that we can stop all of that from happening, I'd like to retire in #Tennessee. I can't do that if the #Appalachians are in #Christofascist territory, which brings me back to being selfish.
You know what I also like, that inspired this post? The #GratefulDead :blobcatjustright: #TVCA

I have been on Blue Sky for 24 hours and already realizing it is time to leave.
I have never seen so much bashing of Appalachians on social media in my life. Blue Sky seems to be the place of rude, deranged comments regarding my beloved region.
I'm back to my safe space on Mastodon. Whew!

A lot of what I read about climate change makes me think of pH buffered solution titrations. You add the acid, dropwise at first. Nothing. You turn the stop cock (giggity) more. Nothing. Still reading pH 14.
Then all of the sudden, boom it drops to 10, then 4 before it stops dropping. This might get weird. I need to get on that mountain land ASAP.
I was enthralled to hear about the #Appalachians / #Highlands connection, but it turns out there's more?? A lot more!
(In case it's not clear, the mountains on all these continents are part of the same mountain range!)

It's #FridayFold!!
The #Appalachians, properly spectacular folds. Do you see the lateral ramp, NNE-SSW, where folds just plunge?
#Sentinel1 radar data acquired on the 2/11/2020. (Data courtery of CopernicusEU, via
Sentinel_hub).
A little geological history.
The Appalachian mountains where most US coal deposits are found are part of an ancient mountain range that was originally part of Pangea, and whose remants are now found in Morocco (part of the Atlas range believe), Spain, England, Wales, and Scotland, France, Germany, and wherever Silesia and/or Galecia are now found, Czechia and Slovakia, perhaps Poland, AFAIR.
And there's coal found along most of those regions also, for the same reasons it's found in the US: ancient forests, possibly swamps, with high productivity and for reasons still not entirely clear, little decomposition of the fallen timber (the lignan hypothesis still has currency). The countries in which these mountains and coal deposits are found is where you'll find most of the first industrialised countries as well.
And when I say ancient I mean ancient. Literally older than dirt, as the ranges formed from 300 to 400 mya, before life had colonised land, which means before there was an accumulation of plant material on land, let alone decomposers and burrowing animals such as worms which are key in soil formation.
Odder yet: there's a river which flows through the Appalachians which is thought to be older than the mountain range itself.
The river is of course named New.
