    Civil War Balloons Part 2
    Jun 17 2026
    The year 1861 was the start of America's air force. Balloon power was revolutionized by T.S.C. Lowe because he added instant telegraph communication onboard. President Lincoln was at the White Hous as Lowe flew 500 feet above sending down an instant message to the President. The first Battle of Bull Run gained military intelligence and observation with the first aerial balloon during U.S. wartime. It would be nearly 80 years afterward that the U.S. gained military supremacy with wartime balloons. The hiccup between scientist and military was what kept the two from aligning sooner. By WWII the U.S. military incorporated balloons at a wartime pinacle.

    Highwaymen Art: Is It All The Same? Part 2
    May 27 2026
    There are 26 artists in the Highwaymen group. Many of the paintings feature trees, landscape and outdoor scenes. Are they all visibly the same? Some people may quick look and think so, but if you really study each painting, each artist, you'll find their unique qualities. Perspective is what makes the originality. Brush or Pallet knife creates a 3D affect Some paintings were thought to be "yucky" yet, they sold in 24 hours! It's all in what you like. Enjoy!
