Welcome to Ray Massey's America!
Through this site, I am exploring what America is about now, her people, places, history, and more. Tocqueville wrote about who we were in the 19th Century; I want to know who we are in the 21st Century, and I want you to come along for the ride. This site won’t be your typical dry and boring history lesson. It may be a little raucous and FUN!
This site is about America, her states and her people; it is a record of my travels throughout the country, so it is continuously growing. You’ll find articles, information, photos, and videos- but that's not all! This site includes:
| People and Places: places I've visited and groups of people I've met along the way, along with historical figures and the places they've left behind |
| Local Flavor: lists of some of the great people I have met, good places to eat and to stay, a clean laundromat, churches, and other interesting local items that may be helpful in your travels |
| Travel Tips: tips and tricks for living in a small travel trailer, practical information on how I modified my Sunline travel trailer and Ford Ranger tow vehicle for my adventures, tips for how to live on the road and meet interesting people, and more |
| About Ray: just a little bit about me and my vision for this site |
| Interesting Links: links to other sites I've found that have been interesting or helpful to me |
| Items for Sale: If you like the site, make some of it your own! Cool stuff to show and tell, more than you see here... |
While we will visit some places that are touristy and that a lot of people have seen, I hope to give you a new perspective on them. I hope you’ll also enjoy coming with me to small, out-of-the-way towns that have had an impact on history, but that you don’t hear much about. Through articles, photos, and videos, I hope to provide a perspective that you don’t get anywhere else.
Below are links to pages where you can find some of my other writings, pictures, and videos. I have a keen interest in politics, history, and economics, but this site is not really about any of those things (though they are included).
