Cloud Chaser
My new favorite show is Storm Chasers. I am just now discovering it in its 4th season and I am obsessed. I am fascinated by extreme weather (specifically tornadoes), but also TERRIFIED of it. So, instead of chasing tornadoes, I … Continue reading

The Cowboy Store
A little while back, as I was checking the facts for my Rite Aid post, I consulted my cousin/partner in crime Lauren about when Rite Aid closed and its Cowboy Store replacement opened.
The following is our text conversation regarding the matter:
Me: “Hey! Quick question: about how long ago do you think Rite Aid went out in Burkesville?”
Lauren: “10 years probably.”
Me: “Ok. I’m still sad about it. :(”
Lauren: “I know!”
Me: “I haven’t even been in the cowboy store because I’m so sad!”
Lauren: “I doubt there’s much in the cowboy store you would need anyways.”
Me: “I don’t know about that! I might need some chaps. :)”
Lauren: “Haha well it’s not really that kind of cowboy store. And who doesn’t need a good pair of chaps? Ha.”
She’s very encouraging of my efforts to be a farmer/cowgirl/crazy lady.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to try to find an establishment nearby that sells chaps so I can get my farmer on.
Y’all come back,
