Family play day
Once a baby, now he’s five
Fun at Disneyland
Always miss Carla
Prayers for David and their kids
Rich for knowing her
Farewell to LA
The Land of the Long Brown Cloud
Love the memories
Watercolour views
Rear view mirror landscaping
Silver light sunset
When will the hurt stop?
Can the Canyon hold my tears?
Eastward, pioneer
Strong prairie winds blow
Scrubbing away my sorrow
Making room for joy
Gold grass, red mountains
A whole new colour palette
I am enchanted
Idling through the plains
Brake, do not accelerate
Will I use third gear?
Put the car in first
And ride the brake the whole time
Ad infinitum
Petrified forest
Welcome relief, three more hours
Long live the road trip
Open arms of friends
Human balm of Gilead
Rejuvenate me
Drove across the plains
The hundredth meridian
Marks my new life here
Tornado warning
Seek refuge in DQ fridge
Welcome to Texas
Tv, Internet
Register at Red’s new school
Beds delivered, swim
Carrollton, Texas
Suburban anxiety?
I can acclamate
Hey, spring, cut it out
Stop sucker-punching my friends
