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.

Someone asked if "The Babe Magnet" was me. Nope, this is me - not a babe magnet, but more than willing to roll in the mud for fun!
My mother used to get really pissed at me for coming home looking like this. Not for me being muddy, brused and scraped, but my jeans and T-shirt needing washing and repaired by sewing.
I remember my brother and I coming up out of the "hollow" completely covered in mud. My mother freaked and we got a session with the "switch" for doing it again. We had to get changed and hose off our muddy clothes. As soon as we were done, where did we go? Yep, back to the hollow to do it all again.
I'm guessing they're getting ready to turn the hose on you.
ReplyDeleteI am sure you delighted everyday...

ReplyDeleteI don't know how many of the pictures as a kid involved mud by my Mom took a lot of them.
