Episode 9 - August of 1929

from The Homes (Life at the Homes) · host Researched and hosted by Andrew Newell and Karen Thalacker. Sound edited by Robert Newell.

Welcome to August of 1929! So much in the world has changed since the children, the elderly, the workers, and the Kleins were living down on Burlington Road as shown by the August newspapers being filled with aviation news and comments by Thomas Edison. Even though the Homes' newsletter gives only a brief mention of the orphans' surprise contact with early Iowa aviation, you'll hear the fascinating background about how it was possible for them to take to the skies. There is also a delightful story of the old men going on a fishing trip.
