I grew up in a town of 5,000, surrounded by cows and oil fields, but there was a lot of opportunity in my tiny little town.

I come from the countryside. I come from a bunch of horticulture family members. My best friend was a farmer's boy.

My family and I reside on a non-working farm, although we have a couple of horses and the usual stuff like pigs, cows, and chickens. We really don't have an honest-to-goodness farm, more of a hobby farm.

I like rural areas.

I've always been sort of interested in the rural countryside. Things happen out there that are very strange to city dwellers.

I grew up in Palestine, West Virginia, which is mostly a farming community; there aren't a lot of jobs.

I grew up very poor in rural Alabama.

I'm glad I don't have to make a living farming. Too much hard work. Too many variables you don't have control over, like, is it going to rain? All I can say is, god bless the real farmers out there.

I come from generations of farmers.

Now I live in the middle of nowhere on a working cattle ranch.
