In my WIP, I just made a reference to George Jones, who, when we was married to Tammy Wynette, went on a multi-day drinking binge. Knowing that when he ran out, he would drive drunk to get more, she hid his car keys.

So he rode his lawn mower ten miles to the nearest bar.

Or maybe he just needed to borrow it to cut his lawn? Out there in rural America you can witness things like this all the time.

In outback of Kentucky, , on the wife's grandmothers farm, you could see this all the time. It was mostly kids just riding them up and down the road, but every once in a while you'd see an adult male, beer in hand running over to a buddies house to shoot the shit.

From the article - "The man is described as aged in his late 30s or early 40s, of Caucasian appearance and was driving a blue Toyota Aurion sedan."
Nah, clearly he was driving a green and yellow John Deere ride-on mower.

I went to visit My aunt in Idaho two years ago, you see stuff like this all the time.

My uncle was the mayor for four years. As one of his responsibilities, he had to plow the streets during snow storms...and man, do they get snow out there.

Nobody had to tell me that he was Caucasian.
