If you have been enjoying the 'Welcome to the Country' humor columns... you will love the book!
'Welcome to the Country' is a humorous look at life in the
country, from cow pie bingo to rocky mountain oysters, to the random collection
of tractors in our yards that we proudly refer to as yard art. Luckily for us,
those rusty old tractors, discarded comodes
bursting with wildflowers, and windmills squeaking in the breeze, have put us
country folk on the cutting edge of 'eco art'. Who would have guessed?
The book includes collections of Welcome the the Country humor columns from '09 thru '12.
My first clue that I had moved to the country was a
pageantry of bovine beauties parading across a four lane highway halting
traffic for miles. As I stared in wonder at the 'fragrant' display
before me, my eyes sadly drifted to the beautiful new Manolo
heels adorning my feet, wondering just where in the country I would ever
wear
them. I soon learned they were useless for mucking stalls and tastier to
a country dog than an old rawhide bone.
Many more lessons followed on the heels - no pun intended -
of my first introduction to the country life.
Not one to turn from an adventure I learned to embrace the
country lifestyle wholeheartedly. My first
order of business... a shopping trip for new duds (aka Wranglers and Ariats) country style haute
couture here I come.
