It would be wonderful if this music video were to go viral. Americans letting their voices be heard via this country’s roots music played as genuinely as can be.

Many thanks to Gary Larson for sharing this video with me last night!
After trying to get permission to use copyrighted music prior to publicly posting my slideshow of the old farm property that my grandfather owned, Intervale Ranch, I have decided to accept the default automated claim that kicked in after I uploaded the video to YouTube over 10-months ago. I’m not allowed to monetize the video, which I never intended to do, and YouTube or the music license holder or both —I don’t know which— will be able to place ads on the video.
I hope I am correct that those will be the ones that viewers can click to remove as the video plays.
So, last evening, I changed the video from private to public. Feel free to kick off the rush that will send this gem viral. Might as well give the license holders their money’s worth.
Without further delay, I present, The Intervale Ranch Slideshow.
Question and answer session to follow. I invite those with inquisitive minds to post any questions the slideshow engenders by posting a comment to this post. I may use them to write a follow-up post that will fill out the detail glossed over by the sometimes cryptic collection of images.
