the natives are restless

A friend was telling me about visiting the Great Plains. She spoke of the harshness of the energy...of the restless Spirits that roamed everywhere. She couldn't get out of there quick enough.

And truth be told, I can't say that I can think of anyone from back there who hasn't had 'experiences'. And I've always tried to figure out why so many people from Dakota have a drinking problem. I always thought it was perhaps the Winds, or the culture, or the harsh climate, but perhaps it is the inner discord brought about by the Restless Spirits who are as plentiful as the fields of wheat, waving in the wind across the plains.
