| 10th Mt. Division Memorial with Fire Watch Tower in Background - Mt. Wachusett |
As I mentioned at the Gathering in May, I make frequent trips to the summit ... a run on the trails, a hike, snowshoes in winter, a picnic, rain or shine, dawn or dusk, daytime or nighttime. It doesn't matter; it's who I am. But more of late, at the summit, I stop at the plaque and think of Ned and his fellow troops, of each of you, of English and Backgrounds class, dump stumping, relay races, readings on the bandstand, and our school days. Indeed how fortunate we are to have those memories to share. And how lucky I am to have the mountain and the plaque so close at hand. I can leave the house and in an hour, it all comes back. Do come visit!
