"Elsewhere the sky is the roof of the world; but here the earth was the floor of the sky. The landscape one longed for when one was away ... the world one actually lived in, was the sky, the sky!"Willa Cather
Beautiful. Yesterday the clouds here looked similiar to the third picture. I think I'd go stir crazy after a while though if I couldn't see a hill or a mountain! I guess it's what you're used to.
We do have gentle hills in my part of the state, and further to the east, we have the beautiful Flint Hills.
It is what one is accustomed to. I've lived on the plains most of my life, and I love the freedom and expanse of open land and sky. I can certainly appreciate the beauty of other areas, but I'm most at home here.
