    I’ll never forget a good friend of mine sharing a comedy special of Mitch Hedberg with me and my continuous laughter 😆 of his jokes. Mitch was a comedy 🎭 genius. Afterwards, my friend said, “So you like him?” , which of course I said definitely. He then said, “Well, unfortunately, I have some bad news, he’s dead now.” I just thought, what a bummer. So talented and likable personality as well as young. Thanks for another great episode, including the historic photographer.

    I was, and still am, such a big fan of Mitch. When he passed, it deeply affected me for some reason. I always thought he kind of reminded me of my dad when he was young, but beyond that I found him to be one of the funniest comedians that I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. He was taken far far too soon. Sadly, it seems like those who have the most talent and ability to make us laugh, have the deepest and darkest demons that trouble them during their lives. Anyhow, I really appreciate you taking time to share his gravesite with us, Jeff. I don't think I would ever be able to make it there to pay my respects and show my appreciation to him for the countless times that he helped me find brightness and laughter in some of my toughest and darkest days, so you visiting and showing it to us allows me to be there vicariously through you. Anyway, love the video as always. Safe travels, Jeff and Sarah!

    Wonderful. I really enjoyed this episode. I hadn't heard of either gentlemen, being a Brit, and all. I've heard much about Jellystone Park (Yogi and BooBoo!). Also, lots about its cousin, the lesser-known Yellowstone National Park ;) but have seen very few pictures. If I'm the only Brit watching, it doesn't matter much, but it would be helpful if you named the State(s) the places you mention are in, Jeff. I know about General Custer, too. Thank John Wayne and his compadres, for the knowledge. As an Italian might say, Somma times somma peoples
    dey get jest a leetle bita bigga da boots!
    I believe he could have been talking about Custer.
    I prove to myself every day, and with the aid of your videos, that at 69 I am still learning, and that there is an inordinate amount of stuff i will never know.
    Thank you for your excellent presentation, and for the time you give of yourself for our entertainment. 😊

    Great film as usual. I love your new hair style Sarah. You were so close to MI. I think I suggested before you should come to Port Huron, MI, my home town. I now live on the west side of the state. Thomas Edison spent some of his childhood years here. He worked on the Grand Trunk Railroad as a young teen. That is until one of the experiments he did while riding and working blew up. His parents and siblings are buried here in Lakeside Cemetery. The graves have large arc around them. Other important people are buried here. There is a large stone in Pine Grove Park, on the St. Clair River, across from Canada, that marks where his family house was. Also Pine Grove Park had a fort on it around the War of 1812. One of the terrible diseases, maybe cholera, went through the fort. Later the bodies were moved from the fort to Lakeside Cemetery. They are marked by a statue or column and a 6inch or so cement border. A lady, don't know the name, gave the sick soldiers food through a window because noon else would go near them. Also another fort, St. Joseph, built by the French in the 1600s is gone and just has a plaque on a pole in that Gratiot Park.
    Also in the Cemetery, the Dunns, of one of the two paper compies, grave stones look like wood logs.
    Charles Gratiot left his name on a park, church and a street. This is getting too long to go I to him. See you next Sunday.

    Hi, Jeff. I was.
    At a committee meeting at church today and an older gentleman mentioned that an airlineris ash in 19:50 into the side of the mountain up in Niles Canyon in the Bay area. Didn't know if you'd ever looked into it before or not.

    Can’t say I heard of the young man but what I saw did make me laugh. Hope that you and Sarah are doing ok. Again my condolences on the loss of Sarah’s grandmother
