Discover Austin: The Alamo - Episode 66
This road trip episode of Discover Austin is different than most. Usually I narrate as the video shows our subject. When I went to the Alamo, the Director of Education, Sherri Driscoll, was a gracious host and has a huge depth of knowledge. After she shared the history of the Alamo, I decided to scrap the original script I had and just have the Alamo history be the narration for this episode. As it turns out, though, Sherri shared a lot of history with me. If you’d like to spend some time learning even more about the Alamo, I invite you to watch the extended length version at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVgHI....
