I'm hoping it's going to have some coverage of the Redwoods. :worship:
Just watched a program on PBS that showed how the USFS and National Parks came to be... And all this time I thought it was Teddy. :thinking:

Thanks for the reminder. I just set my computer to record it.

I really like Ken Burns' documentaries because they don't have the usual guilt trip at the end. That and they are very well done and have interesting music.

I'm watching it now as I catch up on all the posts I've missed while camping... for any Alabamians out there... APTV is also running a special on the state park system... not near as professional or nicely done as Ken Burn's work, but it is informative and has its moments... Show times are listed on the APTV website.
