Found some hills in the flatland

So in the past 10 days I have made some progress in learning to love the flatland. We now receive the local paper daily. This is a big step for us. Usually I read the A section for the days news, the front page of the B section for city news and the obituaries. Recently I read a very interesting obit about Rosella Hightower. Apparently our local obit editor thought it was important also as it was taken of the wire from Oklahoma City. She was a native american and a ballerina. In 1997 five native american allerinas were reunited when they were deemed ohlahoma treasures. the other ballerinas were Maria Tallchief, her sister Marjorie Tallchief, Moscelyne Larkin, and Yvonne Chouteau. I know that Louise Erdrich usually focuses on the ojibwe, but i could see a really lovely book about any of these women or intertwining their stories. These are very accomplished women. Maria Tallchief worked with George Balanchine and Hightower opened her own now prestigious dance school in Cannes, France after dancing to critical acclaim in New York, Paris and other european cities. I can also see a documentary in this.

The flatland is growing on me a bit. I have met a few people that I find engaging. That's a step toward better ,right?

I also did find a hill in a town close to the flatland. It was a beautiful fall drive.
