For six years in Kansas, I missed decent seafood and good pizza. I also missed all the things Eudora Welty wrote about.
Back in the south, I miss high schools with 100 students, 50 of whom are in the school's music program. I miss small towns that get together orchestras. I miss the strong work ethic and honesty of Kansans.
