Growing up in Whitethorn

This is my first post so I will introduce myself to my readers. Long before the first desperate backtolander punched his/her first Marijuana into the red soil of Whitethorn, I lived in this community as a girl child growing up in the wilds with loggers, lumberjacks, gamblers and guns. Part of my blog will describe my life as a kid living somewhere near the lost coast.



Ray Raphael has described Humbolt County, California and Whitethorn in his book The Everyday History of Somewhere. I strongly recommend his book.
