205: JEFFERSON vs GARFIELD’S GHOST ON ‘HAIL TO THE CHIEF’

To date, I’ve visited the tomb of James Garfield in Cleveland’s Lake View Cemetery four times – one of those visits happened shortly after my photographer taped his latest episode of ‘Hail to the Chief’ at GBS Studio in Port Huron, Michigan. Although Garfield is one our favorite Presidents, Ol’ James has messed with me during each of our trips to the impressive monument; built to honor and protect the remains of the assassinated President and his wife Lucrecia.

On July 17, 2013 – my head was mysteriously removed by someone or something minutes after I visited Garfield’s tomb. During my second time at the memorial on August 17, 2015 – I had a close encounter with an energy force while I was held in the memorial’s crypt. Then on May 19, 2019 – my photographer’s cell phone started playing a mysterious song while Tom slid me along the floor of the crypt. And after my final visit to the tomb on May 20, 2022 – my surgically repaired right arm was once again removed from my body.

Thomas Watson

My name is Thomas Watson and I've been a U.S. history fanatic since I was 9 years old. In 2013, I decided to take my passion to the next level when I purchased a Thomas Jefferson bobble head with the sole intention of photographing that bobble head at Presidential sites. From that first day on July 10, 2013 at Spiegel Grove in Fremont, Ohio, this journey has taken on a life of its own. Now, nearly 40,000 miles later, I thought it was time to share the experiences, stories, and photos of Jefferson's travels. Keep in mind, this entire venture has been done with the deepest respect for the men who held the office as our President; no matter what their political affiliations, personal ambitions, or public scandals may have been. This blog is intended to be a true tribute to the Presidents of the United States and this story will be told Through the Eyes of Jefferson. I hope you enjoy the ride!

  1. Very good blog! Do you have any recommendations for aspiring writers?
    I’m hoping to start my own website soon but I’m a little
    lost on everything. Would you recommend starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there
    that I’m completely overwhelmed .. Any recommendations?

    Kudos!

    1. Word Press is not free…I pay to use it through Blue Host, which I highly recommend. If you choose to use a free site, you are limited in the amount of data you can use on your site. If you pay for a site, you get unlimited data; and that was important to me.
