Tusquitee Gap: Life in Appalachia - The Original Georgia Traveler WSB-TV {Americana}

Описание: Life in Appalachia. For the Mull Family it was a simple life. They bought their farm in 1927. 50 years later, they lived exactly the same way they had for decades. Dewey, Gertrude and Effie Mull were tucked up in the corner of Georgia and North Carolina in a section of the country known as Appalachia. At Tusquitee Gap there was no electricity or running water and they didn't seem to miss it. They made or grew everything they needed so they went to town about once a year. Let me say something important. The Mull family didn't live in poverty. They weren't poor or needy. They just wanted to live a simple life on their own terms. This story aired on WSB-TV Channel 2 Action News in 1977.
