Okay, I'll pop in and tell the origin of my Freeper name. When hubby and I got home from our honeymoon, we watched the series "Liberty!" on PBS. We just loved it! It was so moving, and the actors really brought the Revolutionary War to life.

I had great admiration for Abigail Adams after hearing the things that she wrote to her husband in the many letters they exchanged. She was intelligent, stood up for women's rights, and was a true patriot. You can read more about her in my profile.

God bless our troops real good!

I loved that series.

I think Forrest Sawyer was the narrator.

I'm usually not a fan of his, but I thought he did a pretty good job there.

For some reason, the actor portraying Benjamin Rush really stood out.
