The House I Was Raised In

On Saturday a number of cousins and I made a trip to northern Iowa to the start of our ancestry in Iowa. While I was there I shot this shot of the house I was raised in. I will share more about that ancestry in a post to come later.

"The Bohemian is not a follower of the virtues espoused by bourgeois society: routine, temperance, convention, mediocrity, materialism, and respectability. Bohemians despise authority, the status quo and, because they are often broke, capitalism and consumerism."

Laren Stover from the Bohemian Manifesto

Recover

"There are five things that you cannot recover in life:




(1) The Stone..........after it's thrown

(2) The Word............after it's said,

(3) The Occasion......after it's missed, and

(4) The Time..............after it's gone.

(5) A person.............after they die "

Fifty-Three Marathons

There is an 83 year old women in the twin cities who ran her 53rd marathon last sunday. Fifty-Three marathons, incredible. Governor Branstead has asked our state to start walking more for our health beginning friday at noon. If this lady can run 26 miles at the age of 83, I can walk an extra mile on friday.
