Three Things Seen Only in the Midwest, and Three Seen Only in New York



1. Flower chains, and the time and peace to make them;








2. Meals of entirely one color tone (Note: This was a dinner I fixed for myself and does not accurately represent my mother's cooking);



3. Me wearing a Garth Brooks concert shirt while playing croquet.














1. The Brooklyn Bridge at sunset;













2. A Dixie Chicks concert at 8:30 in the morning;








3. A dyspeptic pigeon.
