Congratulations, and remember this is just the beginning of your journey.

         When I think of what it must of been like early AM April 19 1775, on the parade ground at Lexington Green, it sends a shiver down my spine. Not knowing what was going to happen, yet I would have felt comfort in knowing that the men I stood with new what they were about. Friends, brothers, fathers, and sons all willing to give up his life for the man standing next to him.  Willing to give up their life for liberty, and the freedoms of generations to follow.  These men felt the urgency, of the day.
          Captain Parker told the training band to stand their ground, and not to fire unless the regulars fired first, "But if they mean to have a war, he said, "Let it begin here!"

        To hear more about the events of April 19 1775  attend an Appleseed or Library seed near you.
