Moving from a large area in the PNW to a small southern town here is what I have observed. 1. Never be in a hurry, they sure are not 2. The fear logic 3. they are scared of anything outside thier county 4. they fry anything 5. fat on meat is a good thing 6. they sure can fish and hunt (out of season) 7. they never sell a car they just let it sit out in the yard 8. they mastered the BBQ 9. the women are polite 10. you can follow the beer cans to thier house from the store Okay so Im being a tad general and sarcastic here, lol
everything is either over yonder or down yonder asking directions is a task n getting to destination after asking is a chore...
Oh yes the great, go down thru the holler till you reach the old chicken farm that the tornado in 83 took away and turn toward the old Browns place, cross over the old cat fishin hole that ol man Henry caught that real big one at, then pass the ol gas station that burned down before mary married the ol thomas boy and so on.... Like you knew any of these people or places, lol
man thats easy to find,, ya go down the hill till ya see a big flat spot with some old tin an lumber strowed about in the weeds,,turn there an head past a old farm house,keep goin till ya go over a bridge,then youll pass a lot with a slab .. shit ya just gotta use common sence...
Oh no, Im talking about places that there is not visible sign they ever existed but if you were from here thru the years you would have been told of its old location. They will gove non locals the same directions as a local would get, lol Like you knew about the old chicken farm and who these people are ect, lol
I'll never forget the time I stayed on my uncle's FIL's farm in Alabama and befriended one of the cows they had out in their pasture. I used to go out there and talk to her everyday. I thought she was the sweetest thing. Then one night we had barbecued beef for dinner. They had slaughtered the cow and yep, they were eating parts of her for dinner that evening.
oh he knows too,, lol he just been round long enough to remember such things,,, heard it in a convo the other, day,,,, talkin bout a fishin spot with a local "oh yea,,,, ya go past where the ol beer store burnt n ya remember ol whats his name that used to live on that corner,,, make a left thar"
