This past Monday after giving a talk
at the Jefferson Memorial one of the people who had listened to the talk came
up and told me he was a reporter form c-span and that they are working on a
special project about Thomas Jefferson. He went on to tell me that he was very
impressed with my talk and wanted to know when I would be doing it again and if
it would be all right to film it. He also told me they were coming back the
next day (April 13) to film the ceremony taking place for Jefferson's 267th
birthday so I thought that the project they were doing was a short affair that
would be aired that night. When I couldn't locate it I emailed the guy and just
now got a reply from him. In that reply he told me that, "We will go to
air with the documentary in early September," which I take to mean that I
may very well have found myself a part of a much larger project than I had
realized! You never know who is listening to you here in this park!
Life is unpredictable. In 2008 I was working as a bookkeeper in Northern California. Since then I have worked as a National Park Ranger at 40 different units of the National Park System including Wind Cave and Shenandoah National Parks, the National Mall in Washington D.C., and Civil War battlefields across the country. Now I am living on Capitol Hill and helping to protect and interpret our nation's history. What adventures does life hold next? That is what this blog is all about.
