WHAT WE’RE WATCHING AT OUR HOUSE  This is the latest offering directed and produced by the brilliant, creative, historian-reporter Ken Burns and his associate, Lynn Novick.  Runs about $70.00 at Costco and is one powerful investment - I mean investment.  Every American should have to see this, but most will want to see this dvd series.  Loaded with first-person interviews, real footage, photos and all the rest of what Ken Burns ‘magically’ pulls out of his hat…my kids (ages 13 and 15-NOTE: there is some graphic war footage) were on the edge of their seats watching this true story unfold.  Ken Burns doesn’t ‘rewrite’ history, but creatively brings it to life on the screen.  I highly, like 5 star, recommend this for everyone mature enough to handle it.  Take it with you on vacation - we did - far more valuable than ‘just another movie’ and your kids won’t have a clue that you’re helping them form a right and Godly worldview.
