From Southern Appalachia, live in the Northern Rockies. I’ve spent way more time in the Rockies than Appalachia but Appalachia seems to define me.

Fun fact: My original accent was some mixture of a twang and a drawl, but a little more twangy than drawly. I think my accent is pretty washed out for the most part but it starts coming back again when I visit the kinfolks.
It’s probably washed out even more than you think. When I was in the Marines and home on leave, my grandmother always marveled at how I “sound like a damn Yankee now.”

Several of my wife’s family members are from E. Brady. Her uncle went to school with Jim Kelly, graduated the same class.

These have been fun to read. My fun fact is that I don’t know anyone in my family (both sides) or in my wife’s family (both sides) who hunts. As a kid, I always had an unexplainable desire to do so. Finally, as a junior in college a friend I made there took me deer hunting. We’ve since stood in each other’s weddings, and I have been hooked ever since. Still suck at it, but love chasing whitetail with a bow as well as spring turkeys. I process all my own game and feed my wife and two daughters with as much of it as I can harvest. Working on figuring out the puzzle that is Western tag applications now with a goal to chase elk every few years.

You should write a book on date ideas. I’d buy it in a hot min!
