Do they not have Sonic in FL?

Cherry limeade, for reals y’all.

I overlooked one important detail and i apologize for that.

Who the heck gets a lime with their soda?
Illinoisians…who knew

I understand your struggle. In Carrabelle I feel like an outsider as well. Most people there are white and poor. The color of my skin is the only think that i have in common with these people. I can walk around the entire city for hours and see people and be seen. But it takes me standing still for a person to stop their car, or walk across the street and fulfill their curiosity.
Its almost like people don’t want to deal with a moving target. As long as you are moving you have somewhere to go, or so it seems.
As far as invading people’s personal space, or their conversations, its much better to engage a person, or group than to linger around and cause suspicion about yourself.
Keep up the good work. You’re doing just fine. I applaud your nerve to even undertake a task as this. You are gentlemen and well on your way to be a scholar.

I like this. I like knowing your thoughts, feelings, and surroundings in detail..when I was reading this I felt as if i was there. And I love hearing about each time you go to East St. Louis and the encounters you have with the people there.
