Jacob's Log

Where There is Darkness, Light

Community proved stronger than Helene’s devastating power

Only Through Pain Do We Grow

Discomfort can lead to great things

Where We Go From Here

It’s hard to sum up these past two years.

Yes’m, it’s been quite a year

It’s a tossup. Which moment was more nerve-wrecking for me this past year?

A Mountaineer moves on

A journey through Appalachian State University and beyond

Chinese take out

What to expect for dinner in Yiwu after you decline the scorpions

Five guys and a flat-screen TV

Another Christmastime adventure in the High Country

Our energy, our future leaders

The model of the man

Keep the smiles on

A hotrod Christmas

A southerner in South Africa

Our best-laid plans

The value of a country life

Jacob Brooks considers his rural roots

The old man and me

Driving the mower, a ride of passage

First I had to figure out how to get up to the seat.
