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
