While visiting Camps and Directors in the New England
states, I found myself driving through Massachusetts towards Maine when something
clicked in my mind about Lexington and Concord where the “shot was fired that
was heard around the world.” I did a quick
maps check and found out I was only a short distance from the “start of the
revolutionary war.” Naturally I had to
stop by and check out such an auspicious place in our country’s history.
I can’t say it was holy ground, like Israel might be, but it
was patriotic ground for sure. I truly
felt something special, something heart warming and something deeply
appreciative about standing on the battleground.

Below are few pictures and a brief video. If you get a chance to visit Lexington
MA. please do so and let the land and
the story give you an American perspective!
"They nobly dared to be free!!"

these incredible words to start the revolution…
