A Family which looks to contain A woman, a girl and a boy, and a presumed father, which we never see as they probably are behind the camera. Anyways, the two women are always wearing red coats (which explains the titles) and there appears to be a running joke of the son reading comic books (Red Rover!) at historical sites. At least, that's what I'm assuming. Anyways, they visit minor historical outpoists, A troop crossed here, someone was born here, etc. Some lovely painting scenes by the sea shore, and some fishing catch hauls.
