guns part of culture in rural Grimes County, Texas in early 1950s
in her little mind she was always the Good Guy
cowboys needed just the right hat
new baby cousin Gaylen lived in Houston – cowboy hats came later for him
daddy bought the little girl a swing set for her yard
cowboy hats later replaced by baseball caps
shirts optional in the hot Texas summers
meanwhile, mama insisted on teaching the little girl piano lessons
the little girl hated the piano lessons
The guns and cowboy hats are long gone, but mama’s music lingered from one century to the next.
