Chilling on Hippie Hill

These ladies are relaxing at Hippie Hill in Tennessee.

Hippie Hill is a community for families that have no where to go. It's been operated in rural Rutherford County, near the Cannon County line, for more than a decade to provide the transient and homeless community temporary housing and basic necessities. Dwight Teagarden told me, "Many of the folks out here find that they don't fit in down there [pointing towards the city], but they fit in here - we love them." 

"The most basic human desire is to feel like you belong. Fitting in is important." - Simon Sinek

The truck rolled down the hill

Dwight, who lives on Hippie Hill, told me this truck is used to haul water up and down the mountainside. "One time the guys were hauling water in a great big container and a wasp got in the cab - the guy driving started swatting at it and lost control. The truck rolled over on the hillside - but we still use it and it still runs." 

You have to love the durability of old trucks. They last forever.
