Untitled

Driving across the Flint Hills area has been a more and more
frequent event for me lately.  Highway 77 has become quite the
familiar path.  I like the scenic openness that is offered in
short-sight.  However, lately I find myself looking deeper
across the horizon and can't help but notice the landscape
littered with power poles and transmission towers.  Then, I
can't drive through a hill, looking at sheer limestone that has
been blown away on each side, without imagining how that hill
was once complete and flowing unbroken.  Upon further
consideration, I came to the stark and devastating realization
that I am in an industry that put those things there...
