We Walked Today

In Nebraska. My dad calls it "God's Country."

Wide Open Spaces

It's nice to step outside in Nebraska and see the sky, the whole sky and nothing but the sky.

My Nephews

My dad sent this photo today to make certain we hurried home to Nebraska this weekend. And let me tell you, I've already looked into flights for tonight and thought for a while about hitchhiking. I can hardly stand that our flight isn't until tomorrow morning. Those cheeks need kissin'.

Only the Carpenters could sing about a day like this

Lotta slow, dreary traffic today. It's like no one's ever seen rain fall from the sky.

One by Emily

Tell all the Truth but tell it slant-
Success in Circuit lies
Too bright for our infirm Delight
The Truth's superb surprise
As lightning to the Children eased
With explanation kind
The Truth must dazzle gradually
Or every man be blind-

E. Dickinson

April Fools' Day

This has traditionally been a fun and obnoxious day for my family. And it's good to know that I can get them all the way from Chicago. Today my parents and brothers will be getting phone calls for the couch, stove, refrigerator, electric skillet and (free) poodle to a good home, that I have posted for them on craigslist. It's not hard to find photos to post either. Thank you world wide web for bringing us all together.
