Howdy Steemit!
I am "Amishjim", born a son of Appalachia and living this life in Georgia. I have been a film maker for over 20 years. As well as making art in different forms, mostly photography and stencil art. For over 25 years I played harmonica, bongos, cigar box guitar and beat on other random objects in a bluegrass band called Frum The Hills. I miss this band. They still play up around Baltimore. I'm just too far away.

Almost a decade ago, I had a small computer lab set up in my living room. I had all kinds of random servers set up, searched the skies with SETI and mined a cryptocurrency called bitcoin. I mined about 42 altogether, stored in a wallet, on a hard drive that died. I never thought much about it until recently, when bitcoin flew to almost 20 grand. I signed up for Steemit a while ago and never played with it. SO here I am, now. I'm hoping the cryptocurrency aspect of it will entice me to write more. That's the real payoff for me. I need to write!

A Favorite Quote:

I worked the sea for nearly 24 years, am now 60,
and pretty much crippled. Because of the sea.
She will kill you and not even notice.
She will kill everybody on the boat and not even notice.
