“Just Outside of Hope” is the way Stan Parris’ dad described where he lived with his wife and son. His land and small dairy farm were close enough to Hope, Arkansas, that Stan went to school there. Stan would help milk the cows in the early mornings, ride his bike to the general store just down the way when his mom needed milk and bread, and would field grounders his polio-surviving father would throw to him after getting home from his second job.
Stan Parris’ second book is a compilation of Facebook posts about his retirement experiences of doing the family grocery shopping at Walmart, just 1.3 miles from his country home in Arkadelphia, Arkansas. He decided he “didn’t want Walmart to be my legacy.” His newer postings are under the heading, “Just Saying,” and have been compiled into the second half of the book.
