Summary

Upbeat and honest, this engaging tale takes you from the hills of Appalachia to an island on the other side of the world, and to a lot of other places in a quest to serve and grow. The author is spiritually gifted, the product of a spiritually gifted mother, and a father looked upon as inconsequential: the so-called mayor of a remote railroad stop called Barr Cut.

There is a little something for everyone in this story: religion, alcoholism, suicide, cows, marriage, country ways, poets, masculinity, bravado, the everyday humanness of beautiful women, the strength of ordinary people, addiction, university degrees, chiggers, motorcycles, tropical living, cool cars, chicken plucking, divorce, games people play, mental illness, dogs ‘n’ cats, opera, snot, scuba diving, and much more.
