In 1895, there was a massive freeze that totally wiped out the trees in that area and attended the economy. People were walking away from farms.

Bad little baby, you were such a bad little baby, we made every payment. We would have sent you back if that was an option, so youre paid for. The reason i tell you all that, i want to share with you two things my dad would tell my brother and me every day. Mark twain says the older we get the smarter our parents become. You know, theres a lot of truth in that. I dont know about you but i hate the fact that as i get older im turning more and more in to my father. I say things he used to say to us that i hated. He used to tell us if your friends jump off a bridge, would you jump off a bridge . I hated when he said that i say it to my kids.

We begin with Rachel Jackson and emily donaldson. This is about 90 minutes. Rachel was not a fan of anything that took Andrew Jackson away from the hermitage. Her preference apparently didnt strongly influence him. She ran the plantation or the farm and kept everything in order. She might not have been like abigail adams, but she could write a nice letter.
