There is absolutely nothing better than hearing the stories my Grandmother and Father told us when we were growing up. We would sit and listen to them recite what they'd been told as children by their Grandmothers, Grandfathers and Fathers. We were always in awe and captured by the seriousness and understood how ordinary people might have struggled for this cause.

The stories were centered around real life people........my ancestors.....who experienced the hardships most of us have read about in books. We listened as they told us how the wars were fought during the founding of our country. Freedom and liberty were the central themes of these stories, and I don't know how much of those personal tales were true......I don't doubt some embellishment took place........but I believed them then, and I believe them now.

I've drawn a great deal of inspiration from my Fathers, and those other Fathers.......who sacrificed everything to protect man kind from slavery and oppression..........and do so to this day.
