Emily madeline- habitat & habitus

Lane talks about habitat and habitus. Habitat is where we live and habitus is the ritualized action that makes a place habitat. Military families are familiar with this even if they recognize it or not. When a family moves to a new base or fort they go through a process of adjustment. They find a new home, new schools, new grocery stores. By doing all this, they jsut that regular base into their new habitat, even if it's just for 2 years.
