    I grew up in a small town in Ohio and the local drive-in theatre was the place to go. This was in the '50s and all of us kids would go in our pajamas. The movies were either so terrible or so boring that we kids usually fell asleep after we went to the snack bar and scarfed down. After the cartoons they played two movies. You know, Huell Howser really was a national treasure. His positivity and enthusiasm for just about everything should be an example for all of us Americans.

    I wish I was outgoing like him. He has a bachelors in History from the University of Tennessee and I feel like if he’d gone on to earn his Ph.D he’d have been an amazing history professor at any college! He has that upbeat and genuinely positive and kind energy that students love.

    This is a fun Huell video that I really enjoy. He limits the sort of fake 'my God, this is the smallest room I've ever seen', or his Mr. Rogers routine. Here he sticks to conventional questions and doesn't 'pooch' up his responses. Good job for our boy. This was from his 'Visiting with Huell Howser' series and was a 30-minute offering on PBS. One thing I like to do is if I'm down or depressed at times is to watch some of Huell's old California Gold episodes and it really cheers me up.
