Jimmy...well, you're absolutely right. I am enjoying the videos/music of this bluegrass couple. For some reason, it makes me think you probably enjoyed the movie "Brother, Where Art Thou".
As we know, the Civil War was the bloodiest and most savage war in this nation's history. Lines of soldiers less than 50 feet apart blasting at each other...bayonet runs...and a death and casualty toll that was unbelievably tragic. It is certainly a history that needs to be remembered...after all it was only 160 years ago which in world history is very recent.
You would be right Granny! I have seen it once in its entirety and felt George Clooney would be enough appeal for Tammy to enjoy, but alas, even he didn't get her liking the movie. I, on the other hand, really do enjoy it and will stop to watch a few scenes with Casey as Tammy snoozes away in her easy chair.
And dare I say, as has been said before, if we dont watch out, history can repeat itself. I sure hope and pray not. That was a tragic time in America and left a lot of families torn apart.
Speaking of, 2 weekends ago, we visited with my cousin and his DW who live in Spotsylvania Co. VA, just on the edge of the Chancellorsville battlefield, and a mile from The Wilderness. He was a ranger for 35 plus years there in the 4 battlefields surrounding that area. He took Casey and I too some remote places, that only the diehard history buffs would get out of their car to to go and view. Trenches head high, and cannon emplacements stacked 5 deep on a hill at Spotsylvania, the only place in the war you can see this.
Thanks for the links.
here, but as many of you know, I was never a huge fan of the dark interiors of the rooms at the lodge. I have no issue with brighter walls, but like cozy furnishings with warm tones.
