Rail Trail & Old Railroad Trestle, Lyndon KS, May 6, 2010
Rail trail under development
There is a rail trail under development adjoining the Crossroads RV Park. There is about 7 miles accessible from here at the moment. There is a plan to replace this trestle soon with a steel pedestrian bridge. Eventually I understand this trail will extend several hundred miles across Kansas along this old railbed. I think I'll take a walk tomorrow...

Something Useful Can Be Artful
A life, I believe - lived well and openly - with a certain sort of careful attention to form and function - creates art - or, at the very least, inspires it. I believe that art is contained in the ordinary events, that the small things we see and hear and learn everyday provide opportunities to explore parts of ourselves or our society in a way that can actually produce art. Whether it is a story you leave behind or one you take with you, I believe that any given situation is rich with opportunities to participate in the creation of something useful that can also be artful.
