Come back when you can but enjoy your much deserved time away.

I am a native Kansan and have a lot of family back there. ALL OF THEM Democrats and Liberals, but they always have stories to tell about their encounters with the DARK RED SIDE there.

Enjoy the sunrise and sunset of every day.

Peace.
