You’re welcome. It was just the way the posted article started off that made me think of that day.

I spent a lot of my life growing up around the ocean (Navy Brat) and I never realized how much I had taken it for granted until I became landlocked. I think people who live in the most amazing times and places sometimes forget to even realize where they are, and how lucky they are.

And that’s the way I felt when I was in Concord that morning...it is like people who live near the ocean, and completely tune it out, not seeing or hearing it.

Well said. It is good to be mindful of blessings as they are happening to us!

Thank you for your story and the picture. We were in this area some years ago, and felt as you feel....this IS our country’s history...you can feel it and it is a strong feeling and powerful. It should put fire in the bellies of all who view the scene, and remember what transpired here,and how it is now OUR time to step up and do what we must for this country, our Constitution, Liberty and Freedom.
