"But my mother was an only child, and she wanted to go back to Kansas to be near her parents. They moved into a little house that was just two doors down from where my father grew up."
Scott's mother worked as an elementary school music teacher, and his father owned a Phillips 66 gas station on the iconic cross-country American highway, Route "Baxter Springs was a great place to grow up," says Scott.
"Extended family on both sides lived there. It was the kind of place where no one moved in and no one moved out.
