My corner of the world, the land of Oz. Some with a poor pr slogan call it the Land of Ahs. Kansas considered The Flyover state by the rest of the USA. Laughter at the land that's flatter than a pancake. Funny, there are six states that are flatter pancakes than the land of "hicks."
Paradox-an uphill drive from hilly east to much of flatter west. The highest point is only highest, an average looking animal. Flat is not so bad, but Ad Astra Per Aspera rolls green above the flint in those eastern Kansas hill. The Missouri, a large flow that dumps into the Kaw Point and continues on through the state of Missouri to Saint Louis, a future Defiance below the Arches, a television series, fictional.
Kansas, rolling hills, a few canyons, some small waterfalls, and lakes, between which is a spacing of fields reaching to the horizon. Everything here in miniature almost. Dorothy had good reason to click her heels
