    • I have seen that range often over nearly three quarters of a century and have never tired of seeing it. Soon they will be snow capped.

  4. One of my favorite songs from a Kansas traditional music group is titled “clean curve of hill against sky.” Here, your variation is the clean curve of a hill against valley, mountains, and sky — it’s quite wonderful.
