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.
I can still remember being in northern Wisconsin in fall and having the late night movie being interrupted for a freeze warning in the cranberry bogs.
ReplyDeleteCranberry is indigenous to North America. Harvest is in October, maybe late September. Many places allow for volunteers to help. It's fun.
ReplyDeleteI hope they ensure the safety of the alligators that inhabit the cranberry bogs.
