Just remember that a hair over 200 years ago…that is a very short time…this country did not exist, there was no electricity or running water, and people used a little hole in the backyard as a restroom.

The rate of change in the last two centuries has been astounding and makes me wish I had a time machine to see the year 2210.

Indeed, huge changes in 200 years. What does the future hold? I don’t know but I’ve always been a fan of American artist Thomas Cole’s “The Course Of Empire” paintings.
