 The Amazing Chris Guenzler live from the  Pullman Suite at the Depot Inn & Suites in La Plata for this weeks show. We were supposed to be all at the Chris Guenzler Million Mile Lookout Point but Amtrak had other ideas. KC Nathan and Gene were supposed to have arrive here at 9:58 PM but the Southwest Chief ended up being over 4.5hours late. So the Amazing Chris had to do the show from a nice cool Pullman Suite on a hot day outside.
