    Zen in the Art of Writing – Ray Bradbury

    A NOTE ABOUT THE AUTHOR Ray Bradbury has published some twenty-seven books—novels, stories, plays, essays, and poems—since his first story appeared when he was twenty years old. He began writing for the movies in 1952—with the script for his own Beast from 20,000 Fathoms. The next year he wrote the screenplays for It Came from Outer Space and Moby Dick. And in 1961 he wrote Orson Welles's narration for King of Kings. Films have been made of his "The Picasso Summer," The Illustrated Man, Fahrenheit 451, The Mar- tian Chronicles, and Something Wicked This Way Comes, and the short animated film Icarus Montgolfier Wright, based on his story of the history of flight, was nominated for an Academy Award. Since 1985 he has adapted his stories for "The Ray Bradbury Theater" on USA Cable television.

The book really originated through a conversation with that grand old gentleman Charles M. Chase, of Russell. To him I am indebted for much valuable material. Readers of Old Time Tales have especially to thank W. Floyd Clinger for some of the most valuable mater­ ial in this book. Mr. Clinger most generously allowed me free access to his accurate and invaluable unprinted history of the region of Tidioute. Without this aid some of the most interesting tales could not have been secured. I have also to especially thank John Gilfillan of Tidi­ oute, John L.

    TRAVEL TIPS FOR NATIONALS 2017 Exploring the Tri-State Area (Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin) REALLY IMPORTANT TIP: Always, always keep your parking meter fed in Dubuque (Saturdays too)!!!! A Brief (Very Brief) History of Dubuque (see www.encyclopediadubuque.org for more) In 1788, Julien Dubuque, a French-Canadian, was granted rights by the Mesquakie (aka Meskwaki) Indians to mine their land for lead; he settled near the mouth of Catfish Creek (now part of the State Park, Mines of Spain Recreation Area). Dubuque, for whom the city is named, is considered to be the first white man to settle in Iowa, making Dubuque the oldest City in Iowa. For followers of the “Triple Crown Race”, La Classique internationale de Canots de la Mauricie (Shawinigan) in Quebec, Canada, Julien Dubuque, was born in Trois-Rivières (his childhood cradle is located in the Mississippi River Museum). Imagine the journey he made by water to arrive here! So, it is somehow fitting that the 50th Annual USCA National Championships should be held on “the Father of Waters,” the 2nd longest river in the United States, 4th longest in the world (including Missouri and Jefferson River feeds). In 1965, after severe flooding of much of the downtown area, a flood wall was built to protect Dubuque’s citizens and structures from future flooding, so much of the waterfront is rimmed in native limestone and protected by flood gates. Chaplain Schmitt Island, (named after Father Aloysius H. Schmitt) aka City Island, is Race HQ for Nationals 2017. Formerly an airport, a city dump site and a car racing track, it is now a recreational area, with a hiking/biking trail, an indoor iceskating arena (open to the public), baseball fields, boat docks, Dubuque Water Sports Club, Miller Riverview Park Campground, casino, hotel.
