Take Me Home, Country Roads

Oil on board
6x6 with black floater frame.
 
My freshman year in college I picked a school  400 miles from home. It never occurred to me how I would get back on holiday breaks, until my dad broke the news to me that I needed to figure out how to take the Greyhound bus home. It was 11 hours long and made 3 stops. I was never so happy to see the signs on the turnpike that I recognized. As I got closer, I didn't realize how homesick I was. There's nothing like being home. 
 
"Country roads, 
take me home
To the place I belong"
