I live in a place where there are more cattle than people. It’s not about being a cowboy, it’s about respecting the people and traditions of the place you are.

The best things I’ve done is to establish myself are (1) have my signature dish that I bring to events and (2) show up to help when there’s a wildfire.

Rural people judge you based on your character, the desire to not change the things that made you want to move there in the first place.

I go to church weekly, and look for ways to get involved in the community. I recently got appointed to the planning board. They had a resignation, and when the chair started to ask around, my name came up more than once. I agree people watch what you do more than what you say.

I think that reply was longer than my post. I came here to live free and I do not care if I get cancelled or whatever.
