Hello, Darley. This was a wonderful program! I enjoyed every second of it---and I think you did, too. Your enthusiasm throughout was especially infectious! Though familiar with the battle I've never been there nor have I ever seen actual sights from the park itself, so that was of great interest to me. I always appreciate your programs that include historic sites. I knew nothing about the town of Saratoga Springs itself, aside from its fame as a resort & racetrack. I was blown-away by the beauty, charm, & quaintness of the town. Of all the stops you made, I think my favorites were the hat shop & doughnut-making segments. Truly, though, I enjoyed every place you visited & the locals with whom you spoke. I also very much enjoyed where you pedaled the railcar along the track. That took some real courage to go over that high bridge! I now hope to visit Saratoga Springs, as well as the battlefield, at some point in the future. So I want to thank you again for such an enjoyable & entertaining show. As I said, it was wonderful!
