The hills of Kansas…

POSTED BY CALEB

This little mullein made me grin - so brave.

Every once in a while, I have to get away from my books, drawing tools, and computer.  Yesterday, I got antsy and went out to the prairie.  Konza Prairie is the largest remaining parcel of unbroken tallgrass prairie in the world, covering over 5,000 acres.  It overturns the “Kansas is flat” idea – these are some serious hills.  Not much was blooming yet, but the little mullein on a rock inspired me with its tenacity.

Believe it or not, Kansas has hills.

There's something surreal about the burnt prairie that I just can't accept.

The eerie landscape after a burn.
