When I was a kid, many summers I went with my father from Denver, across the country to New York These trips were by car: Up Interstate 76 to Nebraska, where we joined I-80 going east through Lincoln, Omaha, Des Moines, the southern edge of Chicago, across northern Indiana and Ohio until Cleveland where we […] It’s funny how man tries to fight its inner nature. Today I was talking to a 50-some year old Hoosier—and for some reason she revealed that although she is right handed now, it hasn’t always been that way.
