January 1: Kansas to Missouri


Our longest drive in one day so far, 11 hours with one dinner stop. We saw a lot of this: very very flat landscapes with cattle, windmills and one very long very straight road.

I thought I'd post it, too. Cheers, Lois

AND I THINK IT YOURS



That place

where a fold of hillside

scoops sun and shelter

from a mountain wind



or that

where a clear spring

pours out refreshment

never holding back



or that

where a steep track

veers unexpectedly

then opens on a crest

from where a traveller may see

far out beyond

and know his way

which road is his to take--



all these

and all such places

have their names

but in the language of the heart

only one name



AND I THINK IT YOURS
