the trail is the thing, not end of trail

. . . travel too fast and you’ll miss all you’re traveling for

enter our national church
our forefathers and ken burns and pen-&-lens prelates @ the altar

one soaring netflix cathedral
enfolding this couple in prayer past three days

dear reader, pretty sure you’ve already had a look
since its PBS appearance eight yrs ago

pretty much a first for wifeling & me
since pulling the plug on tv around then

this preview goes to ½-hr
fine overview tho no sub for the six episodes

delicious mix of episode cuts & staff comments
still best to get lost in a full episode, esp last two

goes way beyond our many mean issues, even those soaring peaks
who we humans are – what most we stand for – ma earth’s deep connect

one maj work of art for eye – ear – and heart
how to thank you ken & crew for this work of a golden decade . . .

CHK OUT VERY DETAILED WEBSITE SERIES OVERVIEW

ma brings it home
