When David Beene was a young boy growing up in the country outside of Stamps and Buckner, Arkansas he used to have to walk to town down a dirt road.  Occasionally a car would come along, but they never stopped to offer him a ride. "The people who came by you would speed up and cover you in dirt," he said. "They knew where you were going!" He vowed at that point when he got older, he would get a job and make money, and he would always have a nice vehicle. Today he has fulfilled that vow many times over! Today's podcast is one of the most satisfying I have recorded to date, and one of the most surprising I might add. I walked up to David at the big box store parking lot admiring his ride and asked if I could interview him for my podcast. He seemed a little reluctant but we eventually found a time that worked for both of us and he gave me directions to his house. I dropped my jaw when I drove up and saw the car collection sitting out front all polished and gleaming! The story of how he left Lafayette County and returned years later is fascinating, heart warming and a bit je ne sais quoi. You simply must listen! "I don't intend to go anywhere else," David told me. "I love it here. The pace around here is absolutely wonderful. It's a nice way to live." David likes to tell folks he's from L.A.--Lower Arkansas. Take a listen to the podcast and you'll have a greater appreciation for life in L.A.!
