nevergoingbacktobeardstown

I grew up in Beardstown during the late 2000s and through the early 2010s. Mrs. White was my elementary music teacher. I was glad to read she’s retired and still living in town, but disappointed to know she became a Trump supporter. Though given my experience growing up in town I’m not surprised at all by the amount of rabid Trump supporters you would find in town.

Your description and assessment of Beardstown is correct. Moving away was the best thing that could have happened to me as a teenager. Lots of folks grow up there and never leave. Some go off to serve or to college and end up coming back. The best thing to do in Beardstown is to leave.

I enjoyed reading your post!

A teacher for Trump? Being smart and being a teacher are states of being that sometimes don't overlap.
