NOTES
A collection of DVDs all gathered into one "binge box" for a spectacular and educational movie night
Ken Burns, here & there: It is a rare look at the over four-decade intimate relationship Ken Burns has with his America and beloved community of Walpole, NH, and the importance that a "sense of place" and belonging has in one's life. That the essential American fabric of patriotism and goodness are woven through each of us, and often, the road less traveled is a good decision
