@steinarknutsen I believe it! We live in Western Montana and have been to Glacier National Park only twice in 30 years although it is a quick three hour drive! It looks like we both need more State-cation time! Too bad I could not shoot the home interior. Many spectacular rooms with so much history! Thanks for viewing and commenting.

It's a smaller mansion?

Would have been even better without the music. Hard to hear you speak

The recording of Bach's music OVER AND OVER is really IRRITATING! What purpose does it serve?

[@davidegg22]

Chris Petersen The purpose of my videos is to remind me of where I have been. I make my videos to please only one person, myself. I share my videos for others to enjoy. I like this background track since I feel it is soothing. Sorry you do not agree. I respect that and thank you for viewing and commenting. Dave.

THey say that in his lifespan he had 600 slaves .

[@triple6758]

Nasus Mondragon His wealth was inherited.

[@ArnaGSmith]

Okay but let's not take the man out of his times / context.

[@deborahhoffman7394]

He also authored arguably the greatest document of freedom in history. This set equality for all in motion like no other.

[@kirkhamricky]

He also, single handed, ended the importation of slaves from Africa. Wrote the Declaration of Independence. Abhorred slavery and fought against it his whole life. Who are you to judge the man almost 200 years after his death?

[@GH-oi2jf]

Ricky kirkham - It is not correct that he “fought against it.” He thought slavery would eventually go aay, but he did nothng much to hasten it along and kept his slaves throughout his life. There were many abolishionists during his lifetime, but he wasn’t one himself.
