I wasn't being entirely serious but perhaps that's part of this issue. I think in britain people tend not to have that contented sense of beauty. There's always a but.This makes me sad. Midwestern fields have the kind of beauty that just saturates you, fills you up so contented.
And often that but is expressed in self deprecation or sarcasm, or sometimes in a wilful embrace of ugliness.
