  1. Great Expectations

    1D AGO

    Great Expectations

    This week on The Reckon Yard, JW remembers his first Valentine’s Day with Rachael, then reflects on his paternal grandfather’s life and the weight of expectations and how a man learns to carry them. Then we return to Duwali Bottoms, Texas. In the long heat of an East Texas summer, a single afternoon drifts along slow and easy… right up until it doesn’t, and the roads and pastures fill with the restless energy of youth, old grudges, and choices made a little too fast for good sense to keep up.

    If I could only fly

    There’s a beauty in knowing we’re all mostly trying to get home. Blaze Foley helped me stumble across a truth so deep it could only have been hiding in plain sight the whole time. Episode Six of Duwali Bottoms, Texas finds Carl Jr. trying to outrun a summer that’s already slipping away. Sometimes the people you thought you understood best are the ones you don’t recognize anymore.

    Never been to Spain

    The Mazda has left the building while JW falls into a rabbit hole of Americana through the grace and talent of Hoyt Axton. In Duwali Bottoms episode five leans into atmosphere and character, living in the long pauses between decisions and the weight carried by men shaped by place, memory, and unfinished business. The story narrows, the silence grows louder, and Duwali Bottoms keeps moving forward.

    How much advice do you give on subjects you’re not knowledgeable about? I try like hell to avoid it. Trouble is, the waters are full of ignorant sharks. We return to Duwali Bottoms to learn a little more about the land, and what it asks of the people standing on it.
