I am mainly thinking of Hemingway, Martha Gellhorn, and Mark Twain back then. It’s sad to see newspapers decline and worry about that lost training ground. And thank you!

It's so cool to see the skating rink from this perspective. I remember it there before we had to move it for the the bypass.

I found your "voice" captivating and could easily visualize The Farm and 1969 Clinton I hope you don't mind that your style reminds me of Harper Lee, thought provoking about current issues while sharing your childhood memories. I look forward to reading more about the people who brought about progress because they weren't afraid of a healthy argument! Thank you
