It seems fitting I spent the beginning of this week visiting Colonial Williamsburg. Many of the re-enactments detail events leading up to the Revolutionary War. It is sobering to realize the pursuit for independence was not taken lightly, and divided father against brother, friend against friend, and country against country.
Today we honor our veterans. Those who have served, fought, and even paid the ultimate price for our freedom.
Thank you.
