American History

Hey there, I’m Ron Myers!
While most people know me for my extensive career in sports, my true passion lies in exploring the historical wonders of the USA. I’m not your typical blogger or social media guru; I’m just a natural history buff with a knack for storytelling.
For over four decades, I’ve been trekking through the footsteps of America’s past, reliving every bit of history this beautiful country has to offer. From retracing Lewis and Clark’s epic journey to exploring the heart of Civil War battlegrounds, I’ve left my footprints in America and the 23 Countries in North America.
