Reggie Watts in His Montana Hometown
The living room I grew up in had a very Narnia-esque feeling about it. It's especially great to be in it during a thunder and lightning storm.

Hideaway
Under my mom's backyard umbrella lies comfort and refuge from sarcasm.
-
Coffee!
It turns out Great Falls, Montana has some pretty decent coffee! It makes me want to come back more often, aside from the fact that my mom lives there.
-
Plenty of Time
A mountain man's mini-scooter is the perfect way to pass the time in the empty lot of a junkyard. Great Falls is a place where time is on your side.

Welding
Watching them old Montucky boys play with their welding supplies and talking to their guru always makes me smile.
-
Den
In the cluttered den of my friend Wallace Bossie, I sit with an orange colored meow-head. It is all a very comfortable experience, plus there are Cylons only three feet away!
-
Opinions
My mom, cousin Stevens and Uncle Manu sit at a local diner in Great Falls speaking of politics, most likely. They are all from France and all highly opinionated, so there will always be a spirited egalitarian conversation. My mom loves patty melts.

Mystery Solved
I know it's hard to tell by the look of it, but I'm actually in front of a restaurant next to a car!
-
Dinnertime
These are my front steps. I grew up in this house from age four to 18 years old. My mom called for dinner from these steps at dusk. Romantic exciting non-cellphone times!
-
Backyard
My backyard. Many G.I. Joes and Matchbox cars are buried in this land. I used sit in a lawn chair in the middle of the night staring up at the stars hoping I would see a UFO. I don't think I ever did.

Antics
More backyard antics for the chubby kid!
-
Nostalgia
I like driving around the neighborhood remembering so many things.

Go Bison!
I'm staring out to where football games took place in back of my high school, Great Falls High. I literally lived through a John Hughes movie in my time there. I feel so lucky that he made those movies during that perfect time. Go Bison!

Diner
Enjoying some moderately good coffee at my favorite classic diner, Tracy's. My weirdo friends and I would go there and spend all night drinking way too much coffee and playing card games like Asshole or Bullshit. Sounds boring, but it was so much fun! #noCellphoneCreativity

Grateful
This is the lady who made it all possible for me to exist, Christiane Watts. I love her tremendously and will always be grateful for how she raised me. I wish my dad were still around so you could see a photo of him too! Thanks Mom and Dad and thanks, Great Falls!
