By G. P. Avants Much of the history we know were taken from letters that people sent back-and-forth while corresponding. Unlike an email, letters were handwritten, unique, and one of time. You could equate a letter from a historical figure as finding gold. The stories, told, the wishes hoped for, and the love sustained really…

Don’t Make Me Use the Fork
By G. P. Avants Some people love learning about historical figures beyond the facts recorded in history books. It is their way of making history come alive and become very personal.

Hamilton’s Shot!
By G.P. Avants On July 4th our family enjoyed the revolutionary tale of the musical Hamilton. Over the years I had heard bits and pieces of the music, samples of the play, but on Disney Plus I saw the story from explosive beginning to satisfying end. Now, I don’t want to spoil the event…
