"Migrant Mother" by Dorothea Lange
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivg3ah2njMx3DmcRLPzFPJKedOsF0uW_OqQs7uR_fJw_0e9OwYgE8v24qpwVaO6wfp3tYzffkoUpkruDbVWeIrsXZ25hqFOvq3h9ltVKeMpkviCr0hrVs2rDgkZtoNZ3KtXzLAr_o551Y/s400/duststorm.jpg)
“Migrant Mother,” Dorothea Lange’s image of a weathered, grimy Depression-era woman in California surrounded by her children, is one of the most famous photographs of the 20th century, as is “Fleeing a Dust Storm,” Arthur Rothstein’s shot of a farmer and his two young sons in the Oklahoma Dust Bowl whipped by the wind, a shack in the background.
The PBS film “Documenting the Face of America: Roy Stryker and the F.S.A./O.W.I. Photographers” shows how the small Farm Security Administration’s New Deal project to document poverty turned into a visual anthology of thousands of images of American life in the 1930s and early ’40s.
There is a great article in today's New York Times about this program which will air on PBS tonight (Monday, 08/18/08) in most areas. In the NY/NJ area it is on at 10PM. Check your local listings and set your DVRs. This looks like "must-see tv" to me!

Wasting Postage Stamps . . .
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNEjvUBuMk2cOS0uyUg43MihkFS9FbZNJM65H27OelEbjEvi9QSMJvm1bs_BQbT2aZoWODqBuYol9p3tCgQNCxHJQ80a2C1xXpMe1VXYIk7WON4xisg9JATumz904_0b-1ebqit-onx-Q/s400/cupidstamps.jpg)
With all my hard-earn cash
Most recklessly I part
But when I waste a stamp
It simply breaks my heart.
I feel exactly the same way about wasting postage!
Waste not, want not.

I would walk around with my camera around my neck and another in my pocket at all times if my home overlooked this breathtaking vista. The gardens are beautiful too. Thanks Lynn!

My sides are splitting over this funny video...
Look what happens when you don't recycle or are inconsiderate of others in the corporate workplace.
