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.
On one of my many forays into Yosemite adter the first real snow, I came upon a sight to behold. It was magical; a mountain meadow 'neath a blanket of delicate crystals. The sun played brilliant and gleamed in a thousand different spectrums upon millions of crystals.
Unfortunately, I had not the right lens filters for my cameras. None of my many photographs captured the scene. Yet in my mind I shall ever behold that glorious vistage.
Yeah, it truly is a 'You had to be there' moment. My words fail. Everyone owes it to themselves to go forth to witness it for yourselve.
Ice crystals are captivatingly beautiful.
