What does "Appalachia" mean to you?
In a conversation over at amazon.com, people are discussing what the term Appalachia means to them. The following post was made by another person, but I love it and know just how they feel when thinking about those beautiful mountains!

appalachia means to me: like the deep heartfelt yurning inside for a place, but its not realy a place its more like a time! a time when people meant it when we said thankyou & god bless ! when kids respected thier elders,when thoughts & lives weren't so cluttered with outside objects & inside envies ! a time when you worked to live not live to work & held your head high cuz you earned it, cuz you made somethin outa nothin, when wal-mart was your garden,the bank was your root sellar, your neighbor was your family friend !
