My family on my father's side is from West Virginia. My grandfather was born in Boone County. My father, his brother and sister were all born in Malden. My grandmother's name was Aileen Lee. My brother, his daughter, my sister's daughter and my daughter all have Lee as their middle name.
I don't think we could be categorized as hicks. My father and my uncle graduated from the University of South Carolina; my father is a mechanical engineer, retiring from Savannah River Site in Aiken, SC. My uncle is retired from a very lucrative career in publishing. We are now living in Virginia, in the town where our ancestors first came to from Switzerland. My uncle and my aunt have purchased the family home and with the help of my father have restored it to its original glory.
Hicks? I don't think so.
But I can still laugh at the Dancing Outlaw.
And you sittin' there waitin' for him, just like a spider.
