Then I came in twice a week - for my own enjoyment as well as to be a guide. And then we started to apply some of the splinters of the ideas back into the piece. ↗

It's rural America. It's where I came from. We always refer to ourselves as real America. Rural America, real America, real, real, America. ↗
