A Morning Comparison

We went back to Elk Country Cafe this morning for breakfast, and I had a revelation. It was just like being back at home in Mt. Pleasant. Take away the landscape (Oklahoma has been mostly varying shades of brown, by the way, minus some recent farmland), and everything else says Mt. Pleasant. The accents. The boots and overalls. The hair. The gruff men getting ready to go off to work. The decor (elk/deer wallpaper border, paintings, etc.) Same thing, different place.
