Watch John Boston on TV

   "Mostly, it's 85 percent history and 15 percent Monty Python and best I know of, 100 percent true," said historian John Boston.
   Watch "The Golden Trail Ride" every Friday, Sunday and Monday at 7:30 p.m. and every Saturday and Tuesday afternoon at 1:30 on SCVTV — Channel 20 on your local Time Warner cable.
   The award-winning writer takes a light-hearted look at our rich and colorful history on his weekly half-hour program, covering everything from range wars to Bigfoot sightings.
   "Watch," said Boston. "Hopefully, you'll come out a little entertained and a whole lot smarter about your valley."
