From Place to Place

It’s really time for a few words from this wayward soul. I have been traveling a fair amount lately, and I find my time a little pressed. First of all, Chicago. I love the place. I was able to enjoy the ‘Taste of Chicago’ – a few blocks of food and fun. The planetarium was ‘entertaining and educational’ and the afternoon thunderstorms behind the city were a nice touch.

I was home for a bit and then left for Council Bluffs/Omaha. Good times in corn country, and beautifully humid air.

Detroit was next; actually, it was a suburb of Detroit called Novi. It was here I found a whole ward full of friends. It was disappointing at first, to be stuck in Detroit for the weekend, but when it came to leave I wanted to stay! I miss the green, the lake, the parks, the people - I will return!

Augusta is warm this time of year, but I can’t complain about the warm, moist air that is always a familiar, comforting delight.
