Today the big moving van left the big city for the mountains.
Bittersweet moment to leave a loving home of 20+ years but the #Appalachians were calling me home.
It definitely was the house that built me. Now it is time to get back to my heritage and create new stories. My soul belongs in these mountains.
#Atlanta suburbs are no longer welcoming.

Nick Brumfield wrote a review of "The Night of the Hunter" movie. He analyzed it as an example of cinema set in Appalachia before the idea of Appalachia was resurrected and codified in the 1960s.

So, I just finished reading DEMON COPPERHEAD by Barbara Kingsolver. It was utterly unputdownable, I got mad at my family for speaking to me while I was reading it, and when I read the final sentence and closed the book all I could say was "DAMN."
Highly recommend, y'all. HIGHEST OF HIGHLY.

Seeing fewer #fireflies this year? Here’s why, and how you can help.
Fireflies are vulnerable to #ClimateChange and habitat loss. Some simple landscaping tricks and turning off porch lights can make a big difference.
This coverage is made possible through a partnership between #Grist and #BPR, a #PublicRadio station serving western #NorthCarolina.
Katie Myers Regional Reporter, #Appalachia, July 11, 2025
Excerpt: "Basham and Jacobs have a few other tips for helping fireflies thrive. You don’t need to be a scientist to help protect fireflies. In fact, the biggest difference comes from how we care for our own #backyards. Here are a few things Basham and Jacobs recommend:
- Turn off your #PorchLights. Fireflies are incredibly sensitive to #ArtificialLight, and it can confuse them.
- Ditch the manicured lawn and embrace #NativePlants. In addition to being easier to care for, they suit the local environment and conserve water.
- Leave some leaves behind when you rake in the fall. They’re a great place for fireflies to find food, stay cool, and lay eggs.
- Plant shrubs, tufting grasses, and other, large plants. These can shelter fireflies during rainstorms and other severe weather.
- If you spot fireflies, jot down when and where you saw them and add your observations to citizen science databases like iNaturalist, Firefly Watch, or Firefly Atlas to help scientists collect data."Even among those who study fireflies, the thrill of spotting them remains magical. Lower has made many excursions to the southern #AppalachianMountains to find the famous, ethereal 'blue ghosts.' Rather than flicker, the insects emit a continuous bluish-green glow. 'You walk into the pitch black woods and at first you can’t really see anything right because your eyes are getting used to the darkness,' Lower said. 'But eventually you start to see all these dim glows.' "

@optimant @tinker ❤️ I am so glad you mentioned "just the leaves".
Someone told me that it takes 3 to 5 years to regrow from #bulb but I've only picked them from the wild in unknown forests in #Appalachia
Thank you for sustainablely growing #ramps.

Here in #Appalachia, it's #Ramps (which are in danger of being over harvested). There is nothing finer than getting together for a big ramp and potato dinner.
