Been binge-watching Yellowstone with Kevin Costner. About a dysfunctional ranch family in Montana. My granddad was a rancher in Texas. Much of Oregon looks exactly like the scenery in the show, filmed at Yellowstone. Oregon, Idaho, Montana, parts of CA, all look extremely similar once you get inland near the mountains. Impossible really to tell where you are. Could be anywhere out here.

Anyhow, it has taken me back to West Texas and my childhood. Sure do miss my grandparents a lot. Wish we had never left Texas. Yes, there was way more financial opportunity, but to me, at this stage of my life, the chance to have a family I would take over big money any day of the week. Money really is the root of much evil. You need a place to stay that is safe and food and healthcare and stuff. Education. But other than that, all it does is get people into trouble, making terrible decisions and chasing things that mean nothing.
