| 131. My father was a minister who cared for the poor. |

One day he packed us all in the car and drove us to Appalachia. We were fascinated by the houses perched on the edges of the mountains - shacks really.
Later, I saw these shotgun houses with holes every where in Alabama. I'll bet that people are still living in dire poverty in other areas of the US to this day too.
And then there is Skid Row in Los Angeles.
