Lucas County? My mother grew up in Lucas. Back in the ’50s, there was some thought that we might move to families cow-calf operation down there and keep the cattle feeding in NE Iowa. It didn’t happen, but over the years I’ve visited the miners’ museum and Lucas County backroads.

Another old — er, former — editor! And from Iowa, at that. My mother and grandmother were from Cedar Rapids. Pleasure to meet you. Thanks for following my blog. I’d follow back, but I normally do so by email and don’t see a place to sign up. Maybe I just need another cup of coffee …

Thanks, Susan. I was looking at your blog earlier. It’s very good and I’m pretty sure I’ll be borrowing some ideas from you. My blog is set up to show four posts at a time. If you scroll down to the bottom of those four posts, you should find a place to subscribe by email. I’d be very pleased to have you as a reader. Chris.
