I watched ‘The Crossing’ today. It was a perfect day for it and to reflect on where we go now as the USA.

I watched The Crossing too and wondered at how little I knew about this battle of Trenton in which 3 of my own ancestrors fought with Washington, 2 of whom went on to extend their initial enlistments and fight on another year

One of them many generations ago passed along to his grandson a piece of scrip Washington had given him as one of the rowers across the Delaware. How precious an artifact that would be to ever find again
