Couple of things: Great episode, enjoyed it very much.
“Tom Sawyer” was the first video I can remember seeing in the 1980’s and I saw it before I had MTV.
I heard this episode yesterday and was thinking about ‘sawyers’/ You had mentioned people sawing. So by chance, I am watching “The Woodwright’s Shop” (he was in Williamsburg – matter of fact, the guy worked at the old Williamsburg tourist attraction… anyway,by chance today I saw this episode (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AP3sS1u4fSo) which talks about and shows a sawyer (“this is where the name comes from” says Roy Underhill…)
