I see a ridiculous number of California license plates out here in West Texas....former Kansan also as my name would indicate. Really miss Kansas a lot (especially the scenery with it so brown and dry out here but even KS is awful this summer as well)....very proud of this primary!

Have gotten into the habit of checking out license plates when I drive into the city. Tonight, of the 6 that I could see, 4 were from states other than Texas - even saw one from New York last week.

People who have only driven through Kansas have nothing much positive to say about it. But there is something special about the waving wheat and listening to the corn grow that they probably wouldn’t appreciate anyway. Lived there for 45 years. Awesome place to raise a family.

At least parts of Texas aren’t as dry this year as last year. Lived and worked in Lubbock one summer and it was so hot and not a drop of rain.

Farmers in Kansas are really hurting. But politically they are really getting it together. Lots of folks up there worked very hard this election year and they have a right to be proud of their efforts. I know many are so glad Selibus is gone. Dorothy should have banished her to some place other than D.C. though.
