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.

Out my back window
A bald eagle perched for a spell in an old bull pine.
The national bird appears to be looking right at me, with distain.
Meanwhile, the clouds suddenly rent asunder and revealed the frozen snows of Shasta, 60 air miles away.
Kind of makes it worth dealing with all those 110+ degree days, doesn't it?
