Ken Burns

I love to watch documentaries, and the ones I've seen by Ken Burns are very good.
I was looking on Youtube for his documentary on The Dust Bowl. I couldn't find it, but I found The Civil War, and re-watched it.

I am much taken by the eloquence of the average soldier in his letters home, and his willingness to march shoulder-to-shoulder into what must have appeared at times to be certain death.

Here is the bittersweet theme. Ashokan Farewell was not from the civil war era.

I have also seen some pretty good documentaries (about 1 a month) on HBO. Also PIN channel sometimes has some good ones.

I'm a quiet sort, somewhat bookish and prefer small groups of people.
I enjoy the outdoors if I have a bed to which I can return, reading, used book stores, book stores, cycling, movies, travel, DIY. I'm fitter than average.
I do enjoy a good laugh [read more]
