Turns out I was so annoyed with Uncle Press and his secrecy in the second book, I didn't even give the song that best fits the book. Cloral is a land of water and unforeseen consequence as Bobby attempts to follow in the footsteps of his uncle with few tips on how to best be the Traveler that the territories will eventually need. But it's a part of the plan, apparently, not that I'm convinced. Bobby's doing what he can; better than what I could say for myself. See why Press would be tired of me in today's episode, LOL!  BYYEEE!!!!

And what could stand such a test except a bid for presidency in such a time of great tumult as these? Please enjoy this episode as we are entering the third week of Black History Month! BYYEEE!!!!
