Carl Sandburg Home

This photo of Carl Sandburg Home was taken at 1928 Little River Road Flat Rock North Carolina. Carl Sandburg was already famous when he moved his family to this location in 1945.  A Poet, minstrel, lecturer, biographer, and Pulitzer Prize winning author, he had spent most of his life championing social justice and the American people through his writings and his singing.  This place was called home for 22 years.  It appears to me those literary geniuses like Sandburg and Thoreau gravitate to the calm and the serene to for writing.
