    THE HOWLING DAWG Recapping the events of JULY 2017 16th Georgia Volunteer Infantry Regiment, Company G "The Jackson Rifles" THE MUMFORD TRIP The 16TH GA, Co. G in New York The Largest Living History Museum in New York State: Founded in 1966 by John L. Wehle, Genesee Country Village & Museum was created to help preserve the vanishing rural architecture of the Genesee Country, an area encompassing the Genesee River and stretching from the Finger Lakes to the Niagara Frontier and Lake Erie. Today, this living history museum includes a 19th-century village, a gallery, a nature center and 600 acres of gardens and wildlife. Furnished with more than 15,000 artifacts, the Historic Village includes 68 structures originating from 11 counties in Western New York State. The buildings depict how a small town in the region might have changed over time, providing insight into the origins of current customs, traditions and social values. As you stroll the village, you progress through three time periods … with lifestyles growing more sophisticated as time moves forward. In early 2017 an invitation was extended to the 16th GA, Co. G to come to Mumford and we are glad that a fine, representative group was able to go. The tales of the trip are best told in their own words: The Friday morning after we arrived at Mumford and set up camp, some of us went on a tour of the town with Seth. Seth was a friend of Charles and Brick from their Viking group and was quite knowledgeable about the town’s historic buildings and structures.

Each week, Ian and I will talk about all the latest news in indie music. We will review albums, break down trends, expose exciting new artists, and give you all the necessary context to understand what’s happening in the indie world. And we'll also pointlessly rank things — whether it’s the best indie albums of the aughts, the greatest Phoebe Bridgers tracks, or our favorite chillwave songs. The show debuts on July 31, and there will be new episodes every Friday.
