I think people don’t realize that the Appalachian mountains helped keep our country together (literally because without them anything west of the Mississippi would be a different continent)

I grew up in Arizona. While I miss my younger, jagged mountains that have always enclosed my town’s horizon… since moving to NY, I have grown so much appreciation for the Appalachians!! There is *SO* much history in them and they are *GORGEOUS*!!!! They carry history, mystery, transformation, and persistence.
