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.

Nice river, but why not ride the horse through it?
Maybe the last time he tried to ride a horse across the little fast moving river the horse slipped and fell, on him. Pinning his head just inches under the water, where he could still see the open sky, filled with clouds, (and oxygen), just inches from his mouth. But maybe I am just a pessimist.
Not a "known" safe crossing, don't want the horse to come up lame....
