Kansas has fancy bathrooms out in the middle of nowhere.
Here is a perfect example.
This is the first house I remember.
There was one house between us and Granny.
Pete and Billie lived there........he dropped change in his driveway so we could find it.
Aunt Sharon's Farm.
This is where I walked in fields of cows, played on haystacks, swam in irrigation ditches and made mudpies on the porch. It was a glorious porch.
Amber waves of grain.
Well, piles anyway.
The yellow swing on a walnut tree branch.
My dad's tools.
and no, he's not a surgeon
he's a *wagon maker*
Mr. Monkey is in the porch of my mom and dad's house.
He's getting quite old.
Don't you love my hair?
(I'm on the right)
Kansas was *just fine* for me for many years.
I was very happy there.
There was always plenty of wind.
Just so you will know,
the next time I go, I'm stealing this from my sister.
I want it in MY yard.
Beautiful Kansas.
It's where I learned to slam a screen door and ride a bike.
Kansas has FOUR seasons.
I love October in Kansas.
Happy Birthday !!
Kansas !!
I wish I were there today.....for today is also my mom's birthday. I'd take her to get pizza. That way she wouldn't have to be alone.
Happy Birthday Mom!
I love you.
