George Washington Speaks

17 Followers

Vern Frykholm was inspired to portray George Washington after listening to Dr. Peter Lillback talk about his book, “George Washington’s Sacred Fire” in 2011 at the George Washington Inn near Sequim, Washington. In July, 2012, Vern joined 50 other people to tour Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with Dr. Lillback. During that week they visited many historic places involving the American Revolution. The tour ended at Valley Forge, where Dean Malissa, the foremost portrayer of George Washington in the nation, presented his thoughts on the revolution. Vern was so impressed by his presentation, he became convinced that the State of Washington deserved its own George Washington. Since then, Vern has made more than 400 appearances, talked to more than 24,000 people, and has been the keynote speaker at various state and regional conferences. Vern’s goal is to present early America from Washington’s viewpoint with as much historical accuracy as possible. His presentations are not only educational, but entertaining and inspirational for all audiences: young people, retirees, businessmen, civic and patriotic groups, and veterans. Thank you for your interest. Looking forward to further conversations. Vernon L. Frykholm aka George Washington

yep this “spooky-crow” channel is dedicated to my old mate Andy from Gloucestershire in England. See this channel is born out of a long term nagging habit request of my best mate Andy, who happened to be a notorious watcher of outdoor and Bushcraft videos ever posted on YouTube... so naturally he constantly came up with pulling a leg on me. Obviously it became a running joke between us, mentioning the phrase “What's in your Pack than..." while sitting around a camp fire during several Bike, Hiking and Canoe trips over the past 20 years or so brewing up a nice cup of Tea and cooking in the woods.. mainly Scotland and the Scandinavian country. Chatting about our outdoor kit, joking around having a good laughter about our self and in general having a good time together while growing older.... that's old boys muppet stuff.. nothing seriously, just fun. Finally it's all coming together to get to on of my main project, namely "What's in may Pack" hence the name, see yourself and enjoy.
