Well, this is a new experience for me--blogging while on the road. I'm using my dad's iPhone, which is a strange and frequently uncomfortable device, but handy,nonetheless.
Currently, we are just outside of Kirksville,MO, driving driving driving down to my grandma's house in central Missouri. It's marvelous, let me tell you, to not have anything to do but sit here, listen to my favorite Sufjan Stevens albums, watch the vast countryside roll on by and the glowing disc of the sun slowly edge it's way towards its bed behind the horizon.
So here I will leave you, in the middle of America. It's trips like this that help you understand why historical people deemed this country so massive and beautiful. Because it really it. It just goes on forever. And there is something to be said for golden brown fields and flaming orange sunsets that reach as far as the eye can see.
Audios.
