A A Story
Thirty years ago when I was a small child, my
father arranged for me to spend two summer
vacations at a very large farm in South Dakota.
He thought it would be good for me, and he was
right. It taught me a great deal about the
importance of independence. The people who lived
there were practically self-sufficient. They
raised sheep for wool and built their cabins from
logs. The place was so isolated that the farm
owners daughter, who must have been in her early
twenties, said that she had never been away from
home or seen a train.
