Letters from Dogpatch

Nothing beats a good reader response. It warms the heart when you hear from someone who was moved by something you wrote. I wanted to share a couple with you all. My post on Kansas City's Dogpatch is still getting responses. Two residents were kind enough to send along these kind words, and now I share them with you.

Nice. Kiss your brother with that mouth, Chrissy?

I'm feeling lots of love in the room.
