Some things learned while in Kentucky:
- The food is horrendous
- Even if you have Analog phone service, you still cant send text messages
- People who live in trailers even think they need to simplify their life
- The Baptist and the Pentecostals will test your Bible knowledge
- People actually stand by the long conclusion in Mark 16 for a basis for their faith
- If you dont have an SUV you cant reach some of the houses/trailers
- Old tires make great flower pots in the front lawn
- They are in absolutely no rush, so you can stay at the door for hours
- When driving off on one of the dirt side roads, you may just end up in a marijuana plantation, at which point you turn the vehicle around and get out of there before you get shot
- Yes even the 12 year old sons have rifles that they play with
- When having a pet wolf, make sure it is chained up because it will kill everything
- The highest paid jobs are coal miners at a whopping $25 an hour
- Walmart is open 24/7 and it is the social life after 9pm
- The locals dont know how beautiful a golf course they have down there
- Rattlesnakes and Copperheads are poisonous and are in the high grass
- You will eventually begin your presentation with "How Y'All doin round here??" and than say to yourself, did I just speak like a southerner??
- Sonic shakes ARE good
- The Cumberland Gap is beautiful
- You begin to value every single tooth in your mouth
- I cant believe they still have a dry county
- Even the most unlivable trailers will have a satellite dish hooked up to it
- I love NJ

First of all YOU ROCK and you really should do a journal expounding upon the more memorable aspects of the trip, that'd be awesome!
Second of all WELCOME THE HECK BACK!!!! :)
