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've hiked to a few 'fire towers' in the ADK's that looked similar, and lemme tells ya... I could TOTALLY see spending a week or two at a time up there. Just gimme some grub, a bottle to glug, and a big fat baggie and some papers!
Darn if that photo does not look very much like the BOQ I slept in at the Panama Canal Zone barracks back in the early 70's.
