Excellent post, Hive account@apshamilton! One of the great ... "blessings" ... of Hive is the ability to "see through the eyes of others" all over the world. This post serves as a powerful example of just that.

Keep them coming! Now following your account (after seeing this post in my feed, based on the reblog from Hive account@zuerich), for whenever you are inspired to write again.

P.S. Written from an account which is about as American as one can be (without being native American), with every ancestral branch, except one, going back into the 1700s and many back into the 1600s ...
