XavierBreath,
I just read the story on your blog.
My eyes are moist.
I know, trust me I know...
These folks were not as the lady you shared.
Some would say they were not well off, in shotgun shacks, and other housing.
They were happy, and though poor, they really were rich in other ways.
Street Smart.
Life Smart.
These folks had mindset, skillsets and the toolsets...it was them making the tools work.
I learned a lot from such folks, and I miss 'em
Thanks for posting the picture, and for doing a pc on the blog.
Dang, I got a hankering for red beans-n-rice with whatever meat is handy and some scratch biscuits and blackberry cobbler, after seeing that picture.
Then again Poke Salad and cornbread is some mighty fine eating too...
