OMG Shelby Lee Adams... the final link on Kate's list. I felt so at home LOL. I don't live in a rural area or anything but I've always felt like "country folk" at heart. I was born in Little Rock, Arkansas but did not grow up there. I had several aunts and uncles from my mom's side that spoke the same way the family in this link did. They knew that havin' a large family "works a man 'HOARD' don't it?" Many didn't have shoes to 'WHAR'" either. I can mimic that accent like nobody's business. Ask my husband, it embarrasses him to no end (secretly I think he finds it cute ;) I loved Mr. Adams' photos and the back story so much. Gave me more ideas for other photos I can take.
