Appalachian Patria

Appalachian Intellectual. To me that means plain thinking. I am A Non Commissioned Officer in the Army Reserves. Let me say...My views expressed here are mine and not those of The U.S. Army, Army Reserve or my fellow brethren in The National Guard. This is entirely Sua Sponte. This is My Thinking. I'm single and in my mid 30's. Politicaly, I'm a Libertarian. (Again, Sua Sponte.I do not represent the Libertarian Party.)I love my native Appalachia, Rock n Roll and...I love God.

I started blogging for two reasons. I was concerned about the changes to the area I live in, Southern Appalachia and I was about to go to the war. I was in Iraq in 06 and 07 and now Kuwait in 11 and 12. Blogging was a means of documenting my experiences and hoping it would help gain clarity. I don't feel that way about it any more. It's said people write blogs because they are frustrated, that's why people read them too. That makes us sound apocalyptic. Are we? Let it be said, what I say here is of my own thinking. This is entirely Sua Sponte and not an official representation of the U.S. Military or the U.S. Government as a whole.

Remember my tree stand I found back in January? All broken up laying on a concrete floor. Herebis the finsshed product hanging on a persimmon Tree in the back yard. I told my Stepson to use back behind the house. You can't use something like that in Iraq. It's not comfortable, but, it works.
That's a digital camo deal I tediously put on it. The bottom is more green than the top, wich came out of being afraid that I would run out of paint. So what? Right now it's worth the laugh. It's actully been done for some time. I just didn't get around to posting it. That, and I needed to test a pic post on this new Laptop.
