The Sole Tree Update or unusual things you’ll find in the South
I’m a little early on my Strictly Southern blog, but I’ve been sick and the idea of doing an update post on the Sole Tree post sounded like a great idea–the first one was for the MBT Ponderers way back in 2011.

I don’t like what passes for comedy on …
Growing up Southern
It’s been my belief all my life that growing up Southern is different from growing up anywhere else in the world. Then I got to wondering if that was true.
