RED WHITE AND BLUE AND PBS

Happy Veteran's Day!  Thank you, Veterans!!

A perfect way to finish this All-American week:  the PBS Hamilton's America.  Sooo good.  Set aside and hour plus for this fantastic history lesson, as well as thrill for the arts.  (2-minute trailer below, full don't-miss-episode HERE.)
First came indigenous people, then British settlers, then a really big meal, then other stuff, then other stuff, then the United States, and then, eventually, Hamilton, the musical, and this PBS Special.  Enjoy.
