The luminous green of the trees, the deep red of the clay and the easy banter and respectful presentation all came together in the beautiful South Georgia sunshine to make this one of my favorites. Great way to start my day out here in Nevada. Thank you again so much.

    I'm only at the 8:30 point, but I've enjoyed the walk up the road so far. When the other Robert says, "Ya'll hear that bird?", four different birds are calling. The loudest one is a Carolina Wren, but a Northern Cardinal, an American Redstart, and a Red-eyed Vireo are also singing.

The Other Robert, I cannot find a connection between M.W. Whaley and Parrott - but that doesn't mean there isn't. When the contract comes up July 1, you'd better add; access to and use of an ATV, 4-wheel drive or military vehicle of equal capabilities, at no charge for use and all gas and/or fuel supplied. 😉 Appreciate all of your efforts on this one especially. Thank you, Other Robert. 👍👍❣❣

    Robert & Mrs O., I'm just worn out walking that road with you, and knowing you've only gone half way. Robert, you have a penchant for geology. Fascinating how the geologic history can be told through that road cut. The sandstone and limestone is obvious. but where does the red clay come from? Whoever has kept up the Whaley Family Cemetery has done a wonderful job. There's a lot of love in this cemetery.

It was seriously 2 miles one way?!! Yowza!😯 You did it! Thanks again. To the military personnel, a belated "thank you" for your service. A soldier who had served in the Battle of 1812 - amazing!🇺🇲 It's always sad to see the children's graves. I always wonder what they passed from. I'm sure a common reason was illness.

    Hello 👋 My great great grandma was a Whaley. Her Dad was James Kelly Whaley. I know that James Kelly Whaley went to California because he had relatives there. The famous Whaley House in California in old Town. It's been on those haunted house shows. Those were his relatives. Anyway James Kelly Whaley outlived my great grandmother Peachy Ann Whaley.(James's daughter) She died very young, she wasn't even in her 30s. She was married to John Marion Hume. They had 4 children. He got remarried and also moved to California and left all his children by Peachy Whaley in Oklahoma. That was about 100 years ago. But I'm going to do some research and see where James Kelly Whaley came from. Thank you Mr. Robert. Appreciate you.

    At 3:40 those looked like those wasps that fly around over the wet grass in the summer. They don't seem to be interested in people at all. The ones I see are blue. I was surprised to see that big modern bridge out in the woods on a dirt road. Around here the bridges out in the woods on dirt roads are wooden bridges. Actually we have a lot of wooden bridges around here, but in many cases they pave over the wooden decks, which I don't understand. They've only been doing that in the last 30-35 years. I'm surprised that you didn't comment on the fact that all the stones in that cemetery have been cleaned. But that's great. Great to see that.
