A compilation of memories, short stories, poetry and pictures. If you were born near the Ohio River and have your roots in Appalachia, you have the river in your blood. No matter where life's events take you, the river beckons you to return. It will always be home. The author was born and raised in the gently rolling hills of southeastern Ohio and is now living in Nevada. As far away from Appalachia as she is, she still hears the River calling, calling for her daughter to come home.
