James River News New Year's Traditions Tour

This is my First Annual James River News River City Traditions video.
It's a look at some of the ways residents of the Old South ( and Mid-Atlantic States) welcome in the New Year.

From fireworks to gunplay to Civil War history to good eatin' to frigid dunking in the icy waters of the raging James River, it's all here.

Of special note is the history of the Black-Eyed Pea.
