Politics, don't make me turn off comments!

I support Hillary Clinton for the Presidency of the United States of America! She is the only person running who is even remotely qualified and of the correct temperament to command the most powerful military the world has ever seen. I believe that she has learned her lessons from the adventurous and foolhardy interventions in Libya, and Iraq, I hope her eight years in office will be marked by a strong commitment to multilateralism and diplomacy.

The Brandywine Creek in Wilmington

Image
This is a photo of the Washington Street bridge and the Brandywine Creek in downtown Wilmington Delaware. I went down to the creek to shoot a youtube video, and I was successful in that but I did realize that I cannot just go and wing these walk and talks. I need to come up with a plan and then execute it I only managed to get a 2:45 video out of a hour long walk and at least 20 mins of raw footage. I am starting to get better at the filming portion of the skill but I still need to pause more between expressed ideas I talk at about the right speed maybe I could get a hair faster, but I need to figure out how to have a coherent topic and perhaps even a structure to the discussion. Hopefully, by this time next year an hour long walk will make at least a ten minute video.

The Wines and Domaines of France by Clive Coates MW

Image
In this six hundred page tome you encounter an encyclopedic examination of the entirety of french winemaking in the year 2000. One might think that that wouldn't be enough room to cover all of france but Mr. Coates does a great job. The book is divided into eleven sections with forty maps The maps are some of the best I have seen covering the wine regions of france and they also show the locations of famous estates. One of the ways I like to solidify my knowledge of wine regions is to trace maps so that I can really spend some time getting immersed in the geography of the region.
