I'm posting this again because I think it bears repeating in light of last night's tragedy and the rhetoric surrounding it.

This article came out approximately 24 hours BEFORE last night's crash NOT in response to it. It's worth
reading.

The last time I was there, less than a year ago, I had a regular order of fries, a Little Bacon Cheese Burger, and a shake. It was close to $30. That felt like a lot to me for fast food but I rarely eat this stuff.

It seems vast and untouched. It feels like a place full of adventure and discovery. I kinda like places that shock me culturally too.
