Battle on the Green



The Lexington Green is the location of the opening shots of the American Revolution in 1775. It is about a 10 minute drive from our condo. Adam got up at 4am and went with some friends from work to watch the re-enactment at 5am before going in to work. What a great way to start Patriot's Day.

Before moving to Mass I couldn't have even told you what Patriot's Day is and when it is, but around here it is a big deal. There are historical activities all weekend long and it is also the day of the Boston marathon, which is why some people call it "Marathon Monday."
