Uncategorized I just spent a little time looking at my husband Jim’s photos on flickr. He tends to be selective about what he posts, including choice shots from his digital collection and others that were scans of school days, but every one seems to encapsulate a wonderful facet of his personality. They just hang together well as a collection. So just in case you haven’t before, click on “leznek” and browse around.

Travels I had a totally different “rural” experience this weekend when Jim and I drove up to Aimee & Jeremy’s house near Green Bay. The whole place just has a different feel than Illinois… more woods, colorful aspens and birches, red and white dairy farm barns, hay fields, rolling hills, fluffy clouds, and the soft musk of an occasional skunk along the highway. It just doesn’t pack the same level of dread that Iroquois County IL does for me.
This is a neighbor’s house viewed from Aimee’s backyard in Wrightstown. You can see Aimee’s aspen tree, birdbath, birdhouse & little ditch of prairie grasses on the property line. The out of doors smelled great, and I wish I’d had my own laundry to hang out and capture a bit of fall.

Travels One thing about life in rural Illinois… the sky is so damn much bigger. Few buildings or even trees block your view of the horizon. The sun and rain beat down on your lonely person. Telephone lines abound. The whole place gives me ennui.
I’m a city girl now.
