Honk and Helen

How awesome is this! A dear friend, Erik, set us a link to a wonderful blog that we will be following. Here's the text of his e-mail:

This sounds like a very cool project - thought you’d be interested!

“Honk and Helen raised corn, soybeans and cattle. He also worked on the railroad, for the old Monon line, and Helen was an RN… Helen was also a diarist - and I recovered her papers covering the years 1953-54 and 1973-74 from the flotsam and jetsam after the auction. These are the diaries that will be preserved on this blog.
Starting November 1st, I will post here the contents of the 1953-54 diary, which runs to December 1st, 1954. The following August (2010) I'll start the contents of the 1973-74 diary, which runs to September 7th, 1974. There won't be a post every day - the blog will follow the diary, and Helen didn't write every day.”

Enjoy!
Erik

Bryan (my hubby) grew up on a family farm in southwest Indiana and I love going back to visit. It is absolutely the heartland, in more ways than one! I look forward to the warm feelings I will have following this blog, and I hope you enjoy it too!

To preserving our history.
