We're two days into our Midwest tour, and already I'm starting to go stir crazy. Asher hung out with my parents today, while Sarah and I cruised aimlessly around Springfield.
It's been fifteen years since I last called this place home, and I definitely feel the widening chasm - of time and of that less tangible fabric that ties people to their community. I'm not proud of this widening chasm. It's not a good thing that I no longer feel comfortable anywhere outside a major metropolitan area.

And then there are those of us who live in a place where people think Springfield is "the big city." And the crazy thing is, it IS the big city compared to here- but everything still closes very early in Springfield and the town shuts down on Sundays.
Did you check out the new Lincoln Museum? I found it fun when we took the kids last summer.
