In Tennessee where I grew up, there were animals, farms, wagons, mules.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When I was younger, we lived in a horse community.
I also grew up on a farm in east Tennessee, so my roots are just naturally super southern, so I've always had that southern country lifestyle.
I love Tennessee, but they don't have the pine trees and the sandy soil and the black water that I grew up around.
It was a small farm in a little rural town by the Indiana state border. I lived there from ages 5 to 12, I would say, before we moved to Dallas. We had chickens and a vegetable garden, and I had to get up to milk the goats at seven in the morning or do it at seven at night.
Growing up on a mountain in Tennessee, I spent most of my childhood outside.
I grew up with the white picket fence. My dad went to work nine to five, and he had a station wagon.
I grew up in trailer houses in New Mexico, Arkansas, Texas and Oklahoma.
I grew up in rural Tennessee. There were no bookstores in the town, but the school had a little library, and the town had a little library, each with a patient and enthusiastic librarian, and I raced into both as if they were doorways to another world.
I grew up in the countryside, and I was obsessed with horses and wildlife.
We had three cows and a goat. People from New York and L.A. are like, 'Oh my gosh, that's a farm!' But people in Tennessee are like, 'That's not a farm.' I've never milked a cow or anything like that.
