Where have you been?

This picture was taken many years ago using my fathers Nikon F. It brings to mind a backwater area where the Klan would "take care of business". While it is true these horrible things happend and some form of this sick and racist ideal goes on today, Texas is also quite cosmopolitan. I lived in College Station, Tx, - a small college town in the middle of no where - for four years and was suprised how similar the people I met were to me. We enjoyed the same music, the same TV shows, the same cars. My first roommate was a "cowboy" from a town of about 1200 people but he was a sincere, compassionate person. It is strange how we pre-judge people while they are probably pretty similar to ourselves.
