    Thank you, Sir. Listened to this in our hotel room in Odessa, winding up a road trip having taken us to Cele Store, then Presidio via Pinto Canyon and Ruidosa, after which we took the long way back around through Marfa and westward passing Jett Rink, Valentine, and Prada, to Chisca Road toward Porvenir. Though we didn't make it all the way in due to the roughness of the road and comparative "unworthiness" of our rental car, winding up at El Capitan last night in Van Horn proved a pleasant recompense. Reading's story seemed to fit well within our excursion into Texas history as we prepare for our Iong trip home tomorrow. Anxiously awaiting your next offering...

      UK indeed, Sir. I attended college in Stratford. Studied "Bill" at the RSC. One of the few places I truly miss in my autumn years. All said, though...
      I am perfectly content, having made the Lone Star my home (in response to MrSlikvee).

    I stumbled across your channel and throughly enjoyed your narratives on the history of settlement in America…… how I wish go to America to travel and learn more about your fascinating country, but out of my control that will never happen for me, so this is the next big step to do and that is to listen to you tell me some of your interesting, amazing and ‘death defying’ experiences of American History… 🇦🇺♥️

    Do you ever tell the story about David Bushnell and his family? Some of the ladies in the D A R never heard of him.i am a relative of David. He changed his name to Bush and There is a monument to him in Warrenton, Georga. Also have you made a story of the Campbell's of Scotland?

    Followed you, from near the beginning.
    The ”Umm's", early on.... A bit much to take. But, you still brought history.
    It looks like your growing and are figuring it out.
    God bless ya, for sharing history that isn't taught.
    We can delve into, how indians fought Indians, for 200 years prior.
    I'm particularly interested in this segment of American history.
    Thank you

    *It would have been a valuable resource had more individuals whom founded towns across this country, to have written their Autobiography and the details of their efforts and experiences establishing the area as a town.*

      And he was 25. No wonder the kids today are crazy, we keep them at the babysitting public school teaching them political correctness instead of anything at all whatsoever , not even reading , writing and spelling much less math. I'd go nuts too dealing with that for 12 years, right at the time you're suppose to be learning ss much as you can.
