  1. Great photos, oh how I'd love to visit America some day.. The scenery, the little old mining towns long devoid of human habitation, the spectacular mountains and forests filled with all sorts of wildlife, some dangerous, some not so much.. Yellowstone Park (bucket list)... Such a wonderful place that I've dreamt of visiting since I was a child.. I'm 41 now, my two kids have grown, one's working the youngest is in Trinity college studying to be a midwife so they're busy.. Its the perfect time for the trip of a lifetime except for 1 thing.... Bloody covid hits and can't travel anywhere... Hopefully someday soon all this madness will be over and I'll get to fulfill my dream.. I just hope it's the same America we all grew up loving... In the meantime would you mind me following you to see more of your beautiful photos, Cheryl xx

The Evolution of Recorded Music

Let's Take a Look at the Evolution of Recorded Music! Before electricity was invented and used, all music created by composers had to be written down on paper using a quill and ink. They had to document every single note that was to be played (on instruments like piano, violin, harp, etc.) with great detail about the time signature, the speed and tone in which it needed to be played! Often times there was only one or two copies of sheet music, so it's a wonder how all those amazing composition from Mozart and Vivaldi and the like all made it to us today! Good record keeping I guess! 1877: Phonograph on wax cylinders 1890's: Gramophone on large discs 1920's: AM/FM radio frequency 1930's: Magneto phone electronic recording (magnetic tape recording) 1948: Vinyl records created 1960's: 4-track and 8-track cartridge tapes created, while vinyl was heavily purchased until the 1980's 1970's: Cassettes/Walkman created, used until the 1990's 1980's:

Stephanie Camello Compiles the Origins of U.S. State Names

Alabama - Native American Choctaw name meaning “vegetation gatherer.” Alaska - Aleut language translates “Alaska” to “the object toward which the action of the sea is directed.” Arizona - Spanish word “Arizonac” which has origins from the Native American O’odham tribe’s word meaning “small spring.” Arkansas - The French pronunciation of the Quapawa Indians word for which the Algonquin tribe referred to as “akansa.” The French pronunciation was “Arcansas.” The reason we don’t say the “S” is because on an 1881 act passed by the state to solve a dispute between two senators who disputed over the pronunciation. We now pronounce it the French way with the silent “S.” California - The name of an island in a Spanish 16th Century novel for which the Spanish explorers named the land they thought was an island. Turns out it was what we think of today as the state of California! Colorado - Named after the C
