I have exactly forty three minutes of battery time left...

[panik]

My new cable won't be here till the end of the week. I really can't spend time browsing around on LJ (I'm having to work with a pen, on paper! O:! Like it's the Middle Ages or something... *g*)

So I'm taking a leaf out of fluterbev's book; that is to say, copying this word-for word from her fabuouls meme:

I've long been delighted and impressed that the people who read my journal originate from far and wide. What I'd love is for you to comment below, and tell me which region/country you are from. And I'd love if you could add to that one particular thing that makes your part of the world unique. It might be music, a TV show, a recipe, a landmark, a specific historical fact. Anything you are proud of, whether other people might be aware of it or not.

Please. Entertain me! I am so very bored!

Meep! 39 minutes and falling...

i live in Bear Waller Holler, Kentucky, about five miles from the Tennessee line, United States of America. A holler is a narrow valley between two ridges. I already talked about how the area was known for moonshine, in fluterbev's lj, so I'll mention about the caves in the are area. I live about an hour and a half from Mammoth Cave, which is huge and is a national park. There are caves all over the area, some small and some larger. There's a small one I can see from my front porch, across the creek and halfway up the hill. There's on on top of the ridge, a small one, that years ago, I was lowered into to take a look. Heres a link about Mammoth Cave, if you are really, really bored.

Okay, very very cool you can see a cave from your front porch!

And -- while I have never been *lowered* into a cave ::eyes you admiringly:: -- there are quite a few caves in the Ozarks and we went on tours of some of the bigger ones, and I think some of the mountain landscape there (and even the moonshine history, since I've seen decaying old stills) is sorta related to your scenery. So looking at the (beautiful; I love Terragalleria) photos of Mammoth Cave was sort of like Old Home Week, and I could feel that damp chilly cave air. I'm glad you posted that link. ::waxes nostalgic::
