Hello and welcome to the Renaissance English History Podcast, a part of the Agora Podcast Network,

and the original Tudor History podcast, 15 years of

tutor history podcasting and stories.

I hope you are having a great afternoon morning, depending on when you're listening to this.

It is morning here as I'm recording.

So I'm just going to go with that and say,

good morning. I hope you're having a wonderful morning. Today we are going to talk about

tutor places you can visit in the U.S. Right? That's a weird one, huh? But I was thinking about

H.croft Hall and then I did a massive email clear out

a couple days ago. And somebody had written to me, I think it was Misty. I apologize if I got that

wrong. But somebody wrote to me and suggested to do an episode on St. Augustine in Florida, which of course is the oldest

continuous European settlement in the United States because the Spanish were there. And so I was

looking at doing something on that because I thought that was really interesting and I thought

about Agecroft and I thought about all these different places in the U.S. that actually have a connection to the tutors or the very early

stewards. And so here we are doing an episode on that. And of course I was thinking about agecroft

because TudorCon is coming up in gosh just over a week. I am so excited. I'm so excited to see the community of people in person.

We always have such a great time with each other, as well as the streaming people who come online.

It is always so much fun to see everybody having conversations online, to see everybody being

part of it. Just such a wonderful weekend and I am really excited.

Of course, you can get your online ticket if you haven't yet by going to Englandcast.com

slash TudorCon online and reserving your spot there. I've been getting all of the final

preparations done. Things like renewing my Wi-Fi hotspot
