Midwest Rural Scenes

The places being traveled through are often more interesting than the places being traveled to.

After the Civil War, John Wesley Powell correctly determined that longitude 100 degrees W was the dividing line between the eastern US with generally good farmland, and the western US where more arid conditions are the norm. Due to climate change, this dividing line is steadily moving eastward. Water-thirsty fields of corn will gradually be replaced with wheat and other drought tolerant crops in the upper Midwest.
