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?

Having two sons of my own, twins at that, I value what that photo represents, though our photos which resemble that one are largely associated with flyfishing adventures, and we've had dandy ones over the past 25 years. I put a fly rod in their hands at 9 years old, and chasing and stalking trout remains their passion, and mine.

ReplyDeleteJohn, you are blessed. We too for you sharing.
ReplyDeleteThat was my Dad 50 years ago. He grew up cowboy but we three boys grew up part time only on the land where he was born on the prairie.
ReplyDeleteCousins owned the land but back then you took care of family and worked the ranch till he went to college.
Did not know how good I had it till he past.
