Among other things, this post touches on tires, tobacco and the quest for the old mountain jug....
Nothing quite shouts November up here in the mountains like burley hanging from the barn rafters. If'n you've never had the pleasure of smelling curing tobacco in a barn, well, I recommend you put that on your 'do' list.
On the Appalachian homefront:
This weekend it is the Mountaineers vs. Catamounts in a battle for the Old Mountain Jug. I'll be there cheering on Team Yosef. Perhaps more touching is it is also Military Appreciation Day as well. I can already imagine the noise in the stadium as 25,000 plus fans cheer for our veterans.
And here's a bit of news:
Jets sign Marques Murrell. It is not difficult to understand why as he is a two time first team All American. The following photo of Marques was taken on the sideline of the football game against Gardner-Webb.
