Today is Susan B. Anthony Day, a commemorative holiday to celebrate the birth of Susan B. Anthony and women's suffrage in the United States. 

Normally, I wouldn't necessarily have a post devoted to this type of celebration or moment in history, but this one makes sense for me, and has significance to my past.

Susan B. Anthony was born in Adams, Massachusetts, and her childhood home is located just 1.5-miles from my childhood home.  The location of the birthplace home for Susan B. Anthony is located on East Road, at the intersection of Bowen or Walling Road.  This was a busy area in the early 1800's and referred to as "Bowen's Corner".
