    Thank you again for your journey, Mr Shawcross. Many thoughts came both sad and joyful. Peace upon all the dead people buried there, peace and respect. I watched this video and it calmed me but also made me think of life and death, as life can be seen in the end of your walk: the forest, the river, the birds singing, the sun, the wind, the eternal music of water. This year and for me personnally this summer has been hard, full of death. So your walk and thoughts give me calm, and I thank you for it. I am sad but life never dies, it just goes on like your river there. Yet, I also think rivers are dangerous. Sea and lakes are too, but I like them more than rivers. And I like forests, and countryside. Which makes me like your Tennessee which is so beautiful with its green forests and fields. I wish I could one day travel to USA and Tennessee. Also it is nice that you analyse kind of empirically your state heritage through what you see in your surroundings. I have noticed with your videos watching that the historical site buildings seem to have similar yellow paste filler, especially in the foundations, obviously a restauration work. Thank you very much. I look forward to seeing more of your journeys.🙏👏👍🌞

    You were obviously visiting on a Saturday. That alarm always goes off exactly at noon on Saturday, just to make sure the alarm system is working. Since it happens every week, everyone knows it is not a real emergency, just a test.

    I have a friend that his wife miscarried three times in a row, his fourth child is alive and well. I would suggest looking into getting a polarized lense for your camera. I'm not exactly sure which camera you have, but it shouldn't even cost $20.
