And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

It's getting closer to aspen season in the Sierra
Quaking Aspens between Grant Lake Reservoir and Silver Lake along the June Lake Loop are rapidly changing their leaves from a dark green to lime green, on their way to a brilliant yellow color. These trees regularly grow in dense, unbroken stands, creating a stunning golden vista when their leaves fully change color in the fall.
Deer Season
ReplyDeleteWhiskey season, while sitting on a deck surrounded by good friends and flaming yellow aspens. Maybe even a BBQ going as well. Sigh.
DeleteThat too. And the cooler nights lend themselves to fellowship, a bbq steak, single malt and war stories.
DeleteI hear Hope Valley is coming into color now might be worth a revisit. I look forward to your website every morning to get me started on a positive mindset. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteYour kind words are appreciated.
DeleteTime to think on the gather and shipping cattle back to the valley for the winter. Fall is in the air. Miss that more than I can say...
