Point Hope, AK. You'd have to see it to believe it.
Ed I have friends there but have never made a visit, yet. When we lived in Kodiak, I used to tell my wife if we ever visited Dillingham, she would jump in and start SWIMMING back home.

Certainly, 24hrcampfire has to be in the running. That's part of its "charm"

The democratic underground is a place where lefties like you can wail and scream in your safe space without rebuttal or truth interfering in your collective ignorance. They don’t allow free speech there like Rick Bin does here. The guys that support the 2A also support the 1A not like your hypocritical ideologues over at DU. 😉.......ironic doncha think......you associate and argue with good men here because your brethren are scum.

Working in gulf of Mexico in mid 70's and docking navigational survey boat in Fourchon LA! Nothing but a bar that was a old Shrimp boat and fuel. Mid 70's You would not believe Fourchon today. It's a major energy hub. Yep. The LA Offshore Oil Platform (LOOP) is out from there. I served a 6 year term on the LA Board of Regents. A fellow Regent was a ship builder and we were invited down to Grand Isle for the sea trials of a brand new 105' Coast Guard cutter his company had built. Coast Guard people were on board, but the maker provided the pilot to run it. Coast Guard won't operate a boat until it's officially theirs. We went out and circled the LOOP, came back to port. Quite a ride. That thing would do 40 knots in the open Gulf, seemed like it was moving pretty fast, had two 4,000 HP British diesels. Paul is right. DF What boat and when was that? There weren't any 105's If it had Brit engines, those would have been the 110's that Bollinger built.

Ace, it sounds like you spend a lot of time there. Keep it up and post reports. Apparently, you and irfubar are not too receptive to free speech yourselves. March in 24hr lockstep or be invited to leave - it's a theme here. But then all sorts of unAmerican things are a theme here. Carry one. I'm good.

Future City, Illinois, just outside of Cairo.
Passed though a number of times on the way to goose hunting, never spent time there. All black population, extremely poor. Their homes are made from combinations of old barn siding and hammered tin cans. Drove through one time when there was a funeral procession: the casket was made of old plywood, etc.
A very ironic name, and quite depressing. I've heard of Future City , Kentucky, its about an hour from Cairo. Cairo is a horrible, horrible place. look at these houses and the prices they are asking for them in Cairo https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-search/Cairo_IL

East of Alexandria, LA heading towards Natchez, MS are several places that would have made good locations for the movie Deliverance North Georgia back in 1971 and 1972.... WHERE THEY FILMED Deliverance... and when they WERE filming it.... All of the background people in the movie, were actually locals and they didn't have to really do the make up etc routine on them....there were plenty of local people just like they portrayed them in the movie...... other spot is where I live now......wasn't 23 years ago when I moved here... but the drug use in our society, the welfare programs, legalizing dope etc.. its becoming like the Oregon version of Deliverance...2018 style. Respectfully disagree. My family farm is/was located on the South Carolina side where they did most of the filming. The area up there has some of the most beautiful mountain scenery you’ll ever see. Agree that the locals provided most of the talent in the movie, with about all of em just plain ordinary folks like you and I. The banjo picker is quite the normal fella in real life....nice guy who enjoyed his 15 minutes of fame. He may still be around, but I have not seen him in years. Good ol fella though. Our farm, as well as others, on the SC side was lost at that time for contruction of the largest nuclear power facility east of the Mississippi River. We lost the farm and were “flooded out “, exactly like the movie script. Families had the right to move graves before the land was flooded. Some chose to, others didn’t. At the end of Deliverence you see a scene where they were moving graves to cemetery plots on high ground. It was not a staged scene.....that was my family!
You only live once, but...if you do it right, once is enough.

I just built a house in Marion MT, 1 gas station, 1 bar/restaurant, 1-8 school, post office, 1 camp ground, 25 Miles from Kalispell MT. That means you're within 30 miles of a Chick-Fil-A and a Five Guy's. That's not even in the same region as what would be considered backwater.
