I am a huge fan of country music. As someone who was born and raised on a farm in southern Minnesota, I spent countless hours listening to the local radio station in my barn while I brushed and cared for my horses. I would blast country music out of the speakers of my truck as I drove down gravel roads. And most importantly, country music played at all of my school's dances, even prom. I live and breathe country music, but I know some people don't live the same way that I do.
