The people, yes.

If you like poetry or adorable baby goats (I happen to like both), this clip is for you.

Nathan and I visited the Carl Sandburg Home in Flat Rock, NC, while we were in the Asheville area a few weeks ago. The home, now a national historic site, still looks lived in by design. The adjacent farm is still used to raise goats who are descendants of Lillian Sandburg's champions. These are a few of the highlights, set to a song that kept looping in my head as we walked around: "Carl Sandburg Visits Me in a Dream" by Sufjan Stevens.

(Sorry for the crappy video resolution, though. iMovie is giving me trouble with the full quality upload option.)

Very nice. I especially like when the butterfly flits across the image of N. walking by the pond.

That's my favorite part, too!

Is that a picture of the ghost of Carl at 1:35?! You saw him?!
