I'm not from Appalachia, but I've spent way more time in the wilds of the PacNW (John Birchers, Judge Boldt, Survivalists, rednecks, fish-ins, chest freezers full of purloined bear meat, and all) than most people might know, and it's starting to itch its way to the surface like Appalachia seems to be doing to you. Just spent the weekend in a town of less than 200 that ekes out its worth in oystering, and next month will spend a week in a 100-year-old forest service cabin (no running water or electricity) because, frankly, I have to for my sanity's sake.
