Sunny Side Trail Kickoff - Sevierville, TN - View of the Robert A. Tino Gallery
A trip through Smoky Mountain backroads and lush Appalachian countryside. Jump-start your journey with outlet shopping in Sevierville, hometown of the iconic Dolly Parton. See heritage crafters like blacksmiths, carriage makers, potters and glassblowers at Gatlinburg's Great Smoky Arts and Crafts Community, or stop at Newport/ Cocke County Museum for Appalachian and Native American artifact exhibits. Be sure to visit Johnson City. Formerly a railroad town called Johnson's Depot, Johnson City became a major rail hub for the Southeast. Today, it's ranked as one of Forbes.com's Best Small Places for Business and Careers.
Fish the waters of the Nolichucky River just like the early settlers at the Davy Crockett Birthplace State Park, or catch a performance at the International Storytelling Center in historic downtown Jonesborough. Experience Southern Appalachia's bio-diversity at Roan Mountain State Park and the Cherokee National Forest. From Dutchman's breeches to bee balm, you'll find the rich hardwood forests truly fascinating.
Make a pit stop in Bristol, Birthplace of Country Music and home to the notoriously fast Bristol Motor Speedway. In Bulls Gap, visit the Archie Campbell Museum and Tourist Center dedicated to the late star of Hee-Haw. End your journey with a thick, old-fashioned milkshake from Dandridge's utterly charming Tinsley-Bible Drugstore. From hiking wildflower trails to watching local artisans craft their wares, the Sunny Side Trail has something for everyone.

Old Mill Equipment Running at the Thompson's Mill State Heritage Site
The Thompson's Mill State Heritage Site outside Shedd, Oregon (and at the original Boston, Oregon town site) continuously operated from 1858 until 2004. It is now a state heritage park. The park ranger, Tom, took us on an excellent tour of the site. He opened up the old sluice gates for us to see the machinery working like it did for the last 155 years. More photos and video here:

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Appalachia () is a cultural region in the Eastern United States that stretches from the Southern Tier of New York to northern Alabama and Georgia. While the Appalachian Mountains stretch from Belle Isle in Canada to Cheaha Mountain in Alabama, the cultural region of Appalachia typically refers only to the central and southern portions of the range, from the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, southwesterly to the Great Smoky Mountains. As of the 2010 United States Census, the region was home to approximately 25 million people.Since its recognition as a distinctive region in the late 19th century, Appalachia has been a source of enduring myths and distortions regarding the isolation, temperament, and behavior of its inhabitants. Early 20th century writers often engaged in yellow journalism focused on sensationalistic aspects of the region's culture, such as moonshining and clan feuding, and often portrayed the region's inhabitants as uneducated and prone to impulsive acts of violence. Sociological studies in the 1960s and 1970s helped to re-examine and dispel these stereotypes.While endowed with abundant natural resources, Appalachia has long struggled and been associated with poverty. In the early 20th century, large-scale logging and coal mining firms brought wage-paying jobs and modern amenities to Appalachia, but by the 1960s the region had failed to capitalize on any long-term benefits from these two industries. Beginning in the 1930s, the federal government sought to alleviate poverty in the Appalachian region with a series of New Deal initiatives, such as the construction of dams to provide cheap electricity and the implementation of better farming practices. On March 9, 1965, the Appalachian Regional Commission was created to further alleviate poverty in the region, mainly by diversifying the region's economy and helping to provide better health care and educational opportunities to the region's inhabitants. By 1990, Appalachia had largely joined the economic mainstream, but still lagged behind the rest of the nation in most economic indicators.
