#40 Completing A Circle In Fairhope, Alabama.
06/24/23 • 29 min
This episode is additional to our episodes #8 and #9. Henry Stuart built a circular, beehive like, hut in Fairhope Alabama. We completed a kind of circle by taking his diary first to De Lamar, Idaho (episode 8) where he began writing, and then recently stepping foot into his home in Fairhope with the diary.
Henry was a very interesting man who had an impact on many people including author Sonny Brewer who wrote "The Poet Of Tolstoy Park", a novel inspired by Henry and his home. We met up with Sonny at Henry's home and enjoyed our visit and tour. In our episode #9 we go into much more detail about Henry and encourage new listeners to hear this man's story.

#41 Pursuit Of The Simple Life
Milford W. Howard, an attorney by trade and former United States Congressman, wrote a very interesting feature article for The Birmingham News in 1929. And yes, the article is the one we mentioned in the last episode about our favorite "beehive like structure" dwelling man--Henry Stuart.
Milford sought Henry out to get his thoughts regarding the simple life and wrote an amazing article, including poems, personal letters, and of course his own commentary about the man Henry and the idea of the "simple life".
We hope you will enjoy listening to our version of an "audible newspaper article" and perhaps it will provide you some "food for thought".
