Essays taken from a weekly newspaper column published in the Washington County News, Washington, Kansas. Look for my book, "Dispatches From Kansas," available from Amazon.com, or from the author.
I haven't had to drag "verdant" and "lush" out of the word-closet for a while, but for these? Nothing else would do. They're beautiful. You must be having a fabulous spring/early summer. Rain will do that -- after our years of drought, the lakes are back up to pool and everything is clean and green. It's wonderful, and it looks like the folks are enjoying it.
Linda, we've had a very wet spring, so things are positively eye-popping green. That also means mosquitoes but we had them during the drought so they're hardly a concern. I'll take green any day.
I suppose that means your neck of the woods is back to normal. Now if California could get a break...
