Sometime in early 2022, I was either driving home or driving to Fort Worth and along Highway 84 when a billboard caught my eye. It was for a music festival. Two days, one stage, and from what I could see, a pretty killer lineup. I remember Robert Earl Keen, Brent Cobb, Sammy Kershaw, and Jack […]

This semester was extremely busy. While I know it could always be worse, I took 16 hours this semester. My reporting, digital journalism production, and senior seminar history classes kicked my ass, and I was studying for the LSAT in the midst of all of this.
