Let’s say, hypothetically, that you and your writing partner time your departure from your writing retreat at Windbreak House, near Hermosa, South Dakota, in time to be in Chadron, Nebraska, for lunch. Because – again, hypothetically – you’d stopped at the Bean Broker on the way up (just for coffee, though) and had decided it would be a perfect place to have lunch on the way back home.
That would put you in the neighborhood of Alliance, Nebraska, around mid-afternoon. Hypothetically. And you decide to take a gander through downtown, because why not. Turn on the right combination of streets, and you’ll see this. Hypothetically, which I may have mentioned.

Maybe you can’t tell from reading the blog, but I have studied writing. Yes! I really have.
I have been fortunate enough to have twice gone on writing retreats at Windbreak House, a writing retreat for women on writer Linda Hasslestrom’s ranch near Hermosa, South Dakota. Linda is an excellent and a tough-but-inspiring teacher; I am fortunate to have had the opportunities to study with her.
This shot is a (very) weathered door on an outbuilding on her ranch. (You didn’t really think I’d sit inside all day and write, when there were obviously things that needed photographing, did you?)
