How did I end up in Texas?
How Did I End Up In Texas?
(In case you noticed, this was shot as HD, edited as HD, but uploaded as standard definition, because, the file was huge, and it won't matter very much anyway! Future videos will be much shorter, better sound, and less rambling... I promise! )
Follow along on this winding tale, of my motorcycle adventure trip, where I started in Alberta, then passed through British Columbia, Yukon, Northwest Territories, Alaska, down to Washington State... and then I took a plane to Belize... Where I helped build the roof for the King's Children's Home build project.
Then I rode some buses from Belize, through Mexico, plus a ferry, up to San Diego. From San Diego, I traveled by Amtrak back up to Washington State, where I sat still for about a week, before I got bored, and jumped on my motorcycle for a little trip. I ended up in Las Vegas, then rode over to Los Angeles, and back north on the Pacific Coast Highway... All was going well, until my motorcycle died, at the top of a mountain pass, in a snow storm!
Thankfully I was able to get a tow truck to come get me, and once I was back at my Dad's house, it was an easy fix, and the motorcycle was as good as new.
What next, you might ask? Hmmm.. indeed. I decided to move to Texas. Why? Well, that was one place I haven't lived yet! So, somewhat randomly, I loaded up the motorcycle one more time, and moved to Texas.
This clip was recorded while my 3D printer was running, so I apologize about the noise in the background.
I included some pictures taken on the trips, this story covers most of a year where I generally ran amuck and shirked all responsibilities. Good times indeed!

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
James Longstreet (January 8, 1821 – January 2, 1904) was one of the foremost Confederate generals of the American Civil War and the principal subordinate to General Robert E. Lee, who called him his Old War Horse. He served under Lee as a corps commander for many of the famous battles fought by the Army of Northern Virginia in the Eastern Theater, and briefly with Braxton Bragg in the Army of Tennessee in the Western Theater.
After graduating from the United States Military Academy at West Point, Longstreet served in the Mexican–American War. He was wounded in the thigh at the Battle of Chapultepec, and afterward married his first wife, Louise Garland. Throughout the 1850s, he served on frontier duty in the American Southwest. In June 1861, Longstreet resigned his U.S. Army commission and joined the Confederate Army. He commanded Confederate troops during an early victory at Blackburn's Ford in July and played a minor role at the First Battle of Bull Run.
Longstreet's talents as a general made significant contributions to several important Confederate victories, mostly in the Eastern Theater as one of Robert E. Lee's chief subordinates in the Army of Northern Virginia. He performed poorly at Seven Pines by accidentally marching his men down the wrong road, causing them to be late in arrival. He played an important role in the success of the Seven Days Battles in the summer of 1862. Longstreet led a devastating counterattack that routed the Union army at Second Bull Run in August. His men held their ground in defensive roles at Antietam and Fredericksburg. Longstreet's most controversial service was at the Battle of Gettysburg in July 1863, where he openly disagreed with General Lee on the tactics to be employed and reluctantly supervised several attacks on Union forces, including the disastrous Pickett's Charge. Afterwards, Longstreet was, at his own request, sent to the Western Theater to fight under Braxton Bragg, where his troops launched a ferocious assault on the Union lines at Chickamauga, which carried the day. Afterwards, his performance in semiautonomous command during the Knoxville Campaign resulted in a Confederate defeat. Longstreet's tenure in the Western Theater was marred by his central role in numerous conflicts amongst important Confederate generals. Unhappy serving under Bragg, Longstreet and his men were sent back to Lee. He ably commanded troops during the Battle of the Wilderness in 1864, where he was seriously wounded by friendly fire. He later returned to the field, serving under Lee in the Siege of Petersburg and the Appomattox Campaign.
He enjoyed a successful post-war career working for the U.S. government as a diplomat, civil servant, and administrator. His conversion to the Republican Party and his cooperation with his old friend, President Ulysses S. Grant, as well as critical comments he wrote in his memoirs about General Lee's wartime performance, made him anathema to many of his former Confederate colleagues. His reputation in the South further suffered when he led African-American militia against the anti-Reconstruction White League at the Battle of Liberty Place in 1874. Authors of the Lost Cause movement focused on Longstreet's actions at Gettysburg as a primary reason for the Confederacy's loss ...

Muscat Canelli Reserve -- 2008; Sister Creek Vineyards; Sisterdale, Texas
With a floral bouquet flavor, this White Italian style wine is well balanced between the different aroma and flavors. The touch of effervescence adds just the right amount of tingliness with each sip to wake up and energize your taste buds. This wine is wonderful served cold on a hot summer day and has a great fruit forward flavor that also has a buttery hint and a smooth finish. Great alone or with light creamy summer desserts like cheesecake, it is highly recommended for summer sipping and entertaining.
