Beautiful but impoverished.
I was born in eastern KY in teh early 50's and
my parents moved to Lexington whne I was
3 months old. We own the old family "homestead",
but it would be hard to scratch out a living there.
I do like eastern KY for the scenery and the DXing
locations.
Crystal meth and oxycodone have hit the mountain folk hard.
At times it feels like everyone left is either a speed freak
or oxy adict.
