Tammy Hannharlan cares about each of her animals - all 54 of them. Of this family, her 21 pigs are the ones who have captured her heart as she continues to take in those that are abandoned after natural disasters.

Athens is a mix of eclectic communities - people bound by shared values and place. From the college-aged youth living in a co-op house in town to the secluded culture of people living in the hollers - people create the divergent and funky soul of this place.

Miguel Evanosky, guitarist and songwriter for the band "Spooktober", grew up on a farm in Hinton, West Virginia, and began playing guitar in his early teens. Recently relocating to Athens for "excitement," Ebanosky lives in a backyard tent and shops for his clothing in "reuse dumpsters."

See the soul of Athens through the soles of its eclectic mix of people. Take a few minutes to stop, look down and listen. These shoes have stories to tell.
