Basically,the whole scene in San Francisco from the 50’s into the early 60’s and both the American Civil Wars. We all seem to like visuals and sound grabs from old western movies, we dig cactus plants, horseshoes and the whole big sky desert thing. Oh and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn.
