Quien a hierro mata, a hierro muere

Acabo de leer la autobiografia de Pancho Villa por Paco Ignacio Taibo II.  I will have more to say about this later, I just wanted to comment on this day which must be one of the most beautiful in the history of time.

Danville High, Walk to Kentucky 1913-1914



My grandmother, Alice Hickman O'Keefe walked from Danville Illinois to Mammoth Caves Kentucky in the winter of 1913-1914 with members of her high school class.  According to Google Maps it is a distance of 164 miles.  She was born in Danville in 1896 but raised her family in Massachusetts.  She died in 1986.
