The American Southwest

Here you'll find a Podcast about the American Southwest featuring its animals, plants, peoples, cities, and historical sites & events. There's a Trading Post store with stickers, postcards, and more coming soon. I have details on all the places I've been to in the wild and woolly west that includes some insider information and good tips. Recipes inspired by the Southwest have their own page. There's even a blog with pictures and fun stories about the many wonderful places throughout the region. Feel free to get in contact with me for any reason or if you want help planning your next trip to the great American Southwest.  Enjoy the Adventure!

This is the fourth episode over the Civil War in the American Southwest.
In this episode, Baylor and his Texans march north toward Fort Fillmore to take the Fedral post by surprise, but his plans are thwarted. Instead, he marches to the Confederate aligned town of Mesilla. Eventually, Yankee Major Lynde attempts to take the town from the Rebels but is repelled which ultimately leads to his stunning surrender in the high desert heat after abandoning the Fort completely. The hopes and dreams of a Confederate Empire in the Southwest become real as the area of southern New Mexico and modern day southern Arizona are declared the Confederate Territory of Arizona by Governor Baylor.
