It's always fun to read the journal of Miss Waxham, and about John Love and his great west, with Ken Burns' narrative perfectly projected back on the exquisite words of the Wellesley graduate.

As a resident of both Ohio and Pennsylvania, Anita and John's journey along I-80 reads almost like a long-lost but recently-rediscovered geo-intimacy between me and the two patches of land of geological fantasies --- the cratonic, serene, sturdy OH, and the idiosyncratic, proactive, naughty PA.
