In Their Words: “I decided to take myself on a solo vacation to my favorite beach, a place just outside New Orleans called Pass Christian. I was trying to get over this guy, so the idea was to do whatever I wanted, eat whatever I wanted, just have some quality alone time. But instead, it felt like the guy was haunting me and I was thinking about him all the time. I thought I get over him by leaving town, but instead I was sitting by the beach drinking wine and writing songs about him.” — Ruthie Collins
