I loved driving out to the country. Honestly, I missed living in the country. There was a lot of criticism about Oklahoma. I’d heard it all my life. It was flat. There were tornadoes. There was nothing here. Yes, it was flat, but driving on these country roads, you could see the expanse of the plains. The tall grass, the wheels of hay for cattle. The red earth wet from the rain. It smelled fresh and clean. It was quiet and peaceful. This was what Oklahoma really was. Beautiful.
