For me, Kansas is the country.
I grew up in Chicago. You know... big city, bright lights; the hustle and bustle...
Kansas is placid. Quiescent. Calm.
Still, we live close to a large city in Kansas. Our humble abode sits on a residential street. We have the conveniences of shops and services very close by. It's not exactly country living...
Recently, we visited a friend who actually lives in the country. Down a gravel road. Outside of city limits. They have a barn and pigs and chickens.
What a fabulous place!
My girls l-o-v-e-d wandering about the land, exploring new nooks and crannies... it was so great!
Now, I have a little secret for you.
Shh... don't tell anyone!
Someday, I think I'd like to live out in the country.
I'd like to have land and a barn and some animals to tend to.
We could pull it off... don't you think?
I ♥ wheat. I ♥ sorghum. I ♥ sunflowers.
I am astonished that I am able to say this!
I think I have a crush on Kansas.

You're so funny. We don't have pigs anymore because eventually animals have to be, you know...slaughtered...but of course you could live in the country! All you need is a riding lawn mower.
That first picture is awesome!
I love the first pic of Sassy running! You do an awesome job taking pics!
I agree on the pics! I love Little A's triumphant grass pic, too. Oh, and I think maybe Kansas has a crush on *you*! ;)
Yup - Little A appears to love it too!!
