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.
One of the best days I ever had with my yellow Lab was a day up in Sullivan County, PA hunting grouse. Picture reminds me of it. She never quit, the entire day. Went to get into my pick up and she couldn't make it. I picked her up and placed her on the passenger seat where she promptly went to sleep. God, I loved that dog.
DOG is "God" spelled backwards...
