My Hatred Of Rednecks...

[Thumpalumpacus]

The town is scattered to Hell and gone, covers a large area that is mostly rural.

Here's the view from my front porch:

I've got five neighbors. Nearest gas station is five miles away, nearest supermarket sixteen.

I'll never live in a city again unless I absolutely have to.

I aim to never have to but it's easier here where there is wild game to hunt and gather.

Is that an Australian pepper tree on the left?

Naw, that's mesquite. Great wood for smoking meat, every so often I'll go and lop off a branch. Soak it in water for a couple of hours, deck the coal-pan in my grill, and get to work. Best for beef and chicken -- though the latter is better smoked over pecan wood. Mesquite burns hot, you'll have to dash water on it or else you'll be doing some real cooking.
