i spent the last three hours driving down the highway with the windows down, listening to johnny cash and neko case, and watching clouds until the one shaped like a rabbit lost its head. about once a month i go back home for a weekend visit, and each time i fall even more in love with my kansas. i make the drive back to kc wishing that i could somehow pack up all of the lovely people i have met here and move them down to wichita. but until i find a way to make that happen, i will be content to make the occasional three hour drive to sit by the pond and revel in the sight of the heavens being more expansive than the earth beneath my feet.life is good
"better times collide with now
and better times
and better times are coming still" - neko case, "a widow's toast"

Another cool pic, Jodie. Just think -- I get to see that view every time I walk out the front door.
Eat your heart out!
i miss my kansas too. i love st. louis, but i think i'll always have a huge big ol' root stuck in kansas. such is life, i suppose.
