Photo: John Kraft sits next to his yawning cat, Tux, at his hilltop farmhouse in Clear Lake, Wis, A word — 'Hope' — is stitched onto a throw pillow in the little hilltop farmhouse. Photographs of children and grandchildren speckle the walls. In the kitchen, an envelope is decorated with a hand-drawn heart. 'Happy Birthday, My Love,' it reads. Out front, past a pair of century-old cottonwoods, the neighbors' cornfields reach into the distance. John Kraft loves this place. He loves the quiet and the space.
