Summary
Reads: This is the town I'm visiting my friends in-- not unlike the town I grew up in-- Klamath Falls, in Oregon. About the same size, same period, also hilly, same vegetation, though lacking a university. The frozen steppes stretch away in the fierce winters, like Siberia's, and in the summer they are covered with golden wheat. I find it a very beautiful kind of landscape, but lonely, very lonely indeed.
