Orlando Stone Soup
In the heart of the Appalachian hills, at the edge of the Little Kanawha River Basin, is Oil Creek and its tributaries. At the confluence of Clover Fork & Oil Creek the railroad town of Orlando developed in the late 1800s and withered in the mid 1900s. For two hundred years a small community has loved, worked, fought and worshiped here in the OIl Creek watershed and raised new generations to do the same. Here are some of the stories of that community.

This blog highlights the accomplishments of the staff who work in the Learning Resources Centers at Southern State Community College, located in southern Ohio.

The purpose of this journal is to give exposure to some of Kentucky’s finest writers, particularily those with ties to the land and the mountains. Although content will not be limited to just rural writings.
