Houses and Cabins Lonnie Grinnup Visits in "Hand upon the Waters" (Location)

Lonnie Grinnup and Joe periodically shut up Lonnie's shack and visit acquaintances who live in these "houses or cabins ten and fifteen miles away" (71). Lonnie and Joe sometimes sleep "in the hay of lofts," which suggests at least some of the people they stay with are farmers, but in other places "his hosts" let them sleep "in beds in family or company rooms" (71), making it harder to determine whether to identify these locations with "houses" or "cabins," and impossible to say for sure where to put them on the map. They could be in various parts of the county, making our choices in this case particularly speculative.
