The BASTIN Backroom


Through the smokey haze and blur of misty fog hanging over the knobs, hills, and caves of Kentucky, you strain to find an ancestor. A legend in your family has long since left this Earth. But, as old stories are re-told, your long-dead ancestor once again seems to take the stage, as descendants and relatives tell the tale once more. Easy-going, yet with a flare for the dramatic, this is your favorite hangout for reading BASTIN tales of the past. Welcome! You have entered The BASTIN Backroom.

I hope you enjoy this collection of BASTIN family stories. It is a taste of traditional Kentucky story-telling, told for today -- a story-telling art rooted deep in our BASTIN heritage. Enjoy yourself, sit back, and sit a spell, as we become virtual time-travelers to a simpler time, in the Kentucky of yesteryear. -- Gary Bastin, gbastin@cfl.rr.com
