going through whitesburg kentucky
I haven't posted in a while because I've been sick with a cough and was "off the grid" while I was in Whitesburgh, Kentucky. Without internet or cell phone access, I got a room at a Super 8 Motel, and woke up the next morning to visit the well known community media center, Appalshop, which is even better than I had imagined, one of the few constructive things to do in Whitesburgh.
The other place of interest was "Jim's place," which he calls Wiley's Last Resort and seems to be slowly becoming somewhat of an Oregon Country Fair for Eastern Kentucky.
Overall, my time in Eastern Kentucky was really interesting. A totally different place from New York, with beautiful countryside, good fiddle and banjo music, and an interesting mix of moral values and hillbilly partying.
