Let’s see.....Oct. 13, George Washington laid the cornerstone for the White House.
Oct. 19, British surrendered ending American Revolution.
Oct. 28, Statue of Liberty dedicated.
I’m sure we could find something to get stirred up (Oct. 13 is my personal favorite). ;)
Oct 17:
1777 – American Revolutionary War: British General John Burgoyne surrenders his army at Saratoga, New York.
1781 – American Revolutionary War: British General Lord Charles Cornwallis surrenders at the Siege of Yorktown.
But, still think Constitution Day beats whatever other day, up to 10/31.
