U.S. Route 52 winds and curves diagonally from the South Carolina coast to the Canadian border in North Dakota. 2,072 miles of pavement stretches through forests, fields, cities, and small towns, but only one one hundredth of a mile means anything to me. In a lonely passage connecting Dubuque to Bellevue, one specific spot shortly after a break in the trees, for one second, allows you to see 180 degrees in every direction. I anticipate it on my drive home and slow down slightly as I approach it.…

The place I would most likely say reminds me most of Miami is the beach. The beach is an all encompassing picture of everything I’ve known growing up in Homestead, a suburb of Miami. It takes me back to the days on my grandma’s ocean front apartment and the days spent running along the beach with my brother Jason. The ocean, the people, and the atmosphere of the beach screams Miami to me. Miami has always been a melting pot of cultures and languages and traditions, and nowhere is this more…

I can understand how different the scenery must be in contrast to mountainous backdrops or tropical landscapes, however I have always found the prairies to be uniquely beautiful, and I cannot grasp how others do not see that beauty as well. As I drive through southwest Saskatchewan, the world around me is full of magnificence. Despite popular belief, Saskatchewan is not a flat…

I rose to a seated position and looked around me and let out a sigh, the chevy Malibu was still parked next to my 1994 ford explorer and I was still homeless. The thought rang out in my mind as I gazed around me shivering in the back of the truck parked up on the 3rd floor of the Marcus Theater parking garage in Lincoln Nebraska.
