Driving Through Nebraska
If you have ever traveled through the midwest across states like Kansas or Nebraska it probably isn’t something you look forward to doing again. Call me crazy but I kind of like those long boring drives. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t want to do it regularly, but when the trek is only for holidays I always find myself looking forward to the drive.

No excuses for not thinking about the things that are so easy to ignore when you are “plugged in.” By the time I arrive I am road weary but I also feel rebooted.
