| Taken earlier this week in my driveway. I continue to see snakes searching for the lost Million Mouse Buffet! True to form, I saw the snakes several days before I saw the first turtle in the road. |

| This guy must remember my "helpful" assistance to the other side of the road on other First Turtle Days. He turned and high-tailed it back south! |

I can do without the snakes. The rest are fabulous! Makes me wish I was there seeing it live.
I am so relieved that the Flint Hills are really hills. When I was headed eastward from Denver to Wichita last summer, I kept wanting to stop because there was nowhere to go that wasn't just flat and no promise of elevation anywhere I could see. Guess next time I'll head up your way. So beautiful. I can see why you love it.
Kathy - Yes, there are actual hills in Kansas, but they are babies compared to the terrain you are accustomed to! Unfortunately, if you came east on I-70, you traveled through the flat plains where elevations are so gradual. The most beautiful spot of Kansas is a few miles northeast of Wichita on the turnpike - it is all that is left of the millions of acres of Tall Grass prairie on the North American Continent - but it's quickly going too. It grieves me.
Mom,
Wow! Your photography is spectacular! Just like a true artist!
All my love always,
~Your Daughter
