Foraging

"It is breathtaking as one rises up over the world one has been living in...and looks down at it stretching away and away. The Rio Grande - the mountains - then the pattern of rivers...Then little lakes...then...Amarillo country...a fascinating restrained pattern of different greens and cooler browns...It is very handsome way off into the level distance, fantastically handsome...The world all simplified and beautiful and clear-cut patterns like time and history will simplify and straighten out these times of ours - What one sees from the air is so simple and so beautiful I cannot help feeling that it would do something wonderful for the human race - rid it of much smallness and pettishness if more people flew."
