Reflections Part One

We spent the better part of yesterday traveling through The Wheat State. My sister warned me ahead of time. She said, "You're gonna want to kill yourself halfway through Kansas." What's the matter with Kansas?

However, if it weren't for phone calls from well-meaning friends and family (one of my favorites, from Addison, whose first words were: "Are we there yet?") we might not have made it. So thanks for providing a link to the outside world.

We actually cheered when crossing over into Colorado. Who knew?
