Do-Overs

You can have a do-over starting today. But you have to get over the feeling that it's too late ~ Jean Chatzky

Yesterday, many of the school districts in the Kansas City area went back to school.  Man that's early! Even when I was in school we didn't go back until the third or fourth full week of August.

I've posted before about what the month of August means to me, a renewal of sorts. Because my dad was a teacher, August always felt like the New Year in our house. And it still feels that way sometimes.

There are still four and a half months left of the New Year, there's plenty of time to get started, if not completed, goals or resolutions set back in January.  I am diligently working on two myself and renewed by the August/Back to School itch.

Are you feeling a do-over coming on for the end of 2013?

Is it possible for two Civil War veterans to find their place in the world on the Kansas Prairie?
 
When the War Between the States ended in 1865 many Americans emerged from the turmoil energized by their possibilities for the future. Frank Greerson and Gregory Young were no different. After battling southern rebels and preserving the Union, the two men set out to battle the Kansas Prairie and build a life together. Frank yearned for his own farm, away from his family—even at the risk of alienating them. Gregory, an only child, returned home to claim his inheritance to help finance their adventure out west.

Between the difficult work of establishing a farm on the unforgiving Kansas prairie, and the additional obstacles provided by the weather, Native Americans and wild animals, will their love and loyalty be enough to sustain them through the hardships?
