    Yep, home again home again jiggedy jig. With running nose and headache in tow. Leesville wasn’t nearly as bad as everyone made it out to be. Sure, it was a small town, but there were restaurants, and it wasn’t (entirely) made of dirt. Plus, there were hills and it’s a special treat to see those, living in flatland as it were. Well, off to bed now. Will try to write more tomorrow.

  • Here’s your sign

    Oh, I’m sure you could find it if you looked hard enough.
    Watch out for the needles
