Flyover Land tour outline

From your colleague Karen Kletter, a tour outline and supporting documents, with the following introduction:

“To people who live on the East and West Coasts (Florida, New York, California) WE live in
Flyover Land. All the states you ‘fly over’ on a flight from NYC to LA. People on those
airplanes look down and see endless farm fields or tiny towns or vast mountains. But we know there is more to this place we call home. Based on MIa’s collection we’re going to take a tour of Flyover Land.”

Let’s Talk Tours, April 16, 2019
