i put a moratorium on international travel for myself last year and it has frankly made me a patriot
u can see the badlands of South Dakota, the oldest exposed rock in the world (1.8 billion y.o) at the Grand Canyon, ancient pueblos in New Mexico, the pristine boundary waters of Minnesota âall accessible without a passportâwhat a privilege, what a gift
âO beautiful for spacious skies / for amber waves of grain / for purple mountain majesties / above the fruited plainâ they were not kidding
