latimes: At home in a piece of history: Beth Howard stumbled onto the Iowa farmhouse depicted in Grant Wood’s 1930 painting “American Gothic” on a road trip after her husband died three years ago. She pays $250-a-month rent, and a clause in her lease requires her to be nice to the thousands of people a year who come to pose for photos in her front yard. Photo credit: Alana Semuels / Los Angeles Times Love that clause in her lease! Makes me think about Sense of Place (Key 8) and how we transfer it (or fail to)… think about all the “it used to be” stories you hear that make new splashes and start ripple effects just because people suddenly know.
