Growing in the Hawkeye state (Mississippi River town) there were a lot of old boys that flower guys around there. It just they didn't raise orchids. They'd take as much pride in their garden of irises or roses as any lady would. The rest of the time they were working in the roundhouse/factory or spent their time hunting/fishing. Likewise there were old whip thin women that I swear lived on black coffee and cigarettes who were "tougher than a boiled owl" as my dad used to say. But either would be there to help if a neighbor was in need. I learned early on its what's do for others that's important.
