We are fortunate to have a new member of the Ohio Appleseed Team, ThomasF, has taken an Orange Hat and will be learning the ropes of instructing.  We're looking forward to when he begins telling history, as a Revolutionary War Reenactor he has some unique perspectives on the battles and the life of a soldier during those times. Welcoming to the team Thomas!

Thank you for stepping forward. It will be interesting to hear history, with your background.
"In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot."  Mark Twain

Thank-you for stepping up.  O0 Welcome to the trail!
As a Revolutionary War reenactor, I was wondering if you know Joe and Matthew Forte?

If not, you have much in common.

Looking forward to working with you
"A general dissolution of principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the
whole force of the common enemy. While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but when once they
lose their virtue then will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader."
~ Samuel Adams

Huzzah! Thank you all for the warm welcome! I am excited to begin my journey on the Appleseed road and look forward to learning from the cadre the tricks of the trade and the art of planting seeds of liberty! I am humbled to be given the opportunity to preserve our heritage and the honor of keeping it alive...

Cadence- I'm horrible with names but rarely forget a face, there's a good chance the Forte's and I have crossed paths before. Thanks for the heads up! I'll see about tracking them down.

TexasT- I'm working my way through the book a second time and book marking and foot noting, looking forward to telling the history!
