I gratefully acknowledge my Norwegian heritage. From Kirsti Engen's sod hut near Aneta, North Dakota through our era of technological miracles, each of these women set goals higher than her predecessor. May the spirit and accomplishments of my mother, grandmother and great-grandmother always inspire other women.
