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.

Couple of thunderstorms rolled through hereabouts, so sat out in the back under the eve, started a fire in the 1919 parlor stove, and watched the flashing and listened to the rumble.
I did something similar up in Hat Creek. Lots of lightning strikes in 1000 Lakes Wilderness, up on the Rim and down around Old Station. During that we got hit with a torrential downpour and wind. That ended my sitting outside. Still, it was fun to watch.
