Description
IOWA - The main shot in this image was on my first roll of film with my new camera. It was 1962 and I was 10 years old. This was our home for many years after the bitter divorce that divided our family. Dad always told that hard work will pay off and some day, you may achieve the AMERICAN DREAM, owning your own home. As years have passed by I realize that everyone has there own idea of what THE AMERICAN DREAM is. For many, having a family, a roof over head, a TV with good reception and an ice cold beer is a dream come true. To each his own! Oh, that's me in the doorway with a beer!

Hi Mike...I like your image. Love your image and the story in your description, very interesting...I personally have now traveled full-time in a Class A motor coach for the past 10 years and I see this all the time in one form or another. As my wife says "we have a small home but a big yard"...Living the Canadian Dream...Cheers Bob
