From the Ramparts...

OK Rich, I will now bend over and grab my ankles (which I CAN NOW DO because I have hiked a Federici mile or two ...OR TWENTY) and am ready to receive my punishment! You have gently prodded, kindly reminded, ever so graciously suggested that we might want to visit the new section contributed by Tim Cordell. BUT DID I LISTEN? No, too busy, too giddy about an impending trip to MohicanLand, too busy seeking out NC trivia. Well...it has been my loss, UNTIL NOW, that I didn't take your advice.

I was just winding up my day by a little stroll through Mohican Central and thought, "Hmmmmmmm, I haven't been here before. I'll just pop over and have a look see," referring to the Fort William Henry Updates button. Well...what a treat to read all the *From the Ramparts* by Tim Cordell. He writes from just the perspective that I feel sometimes about historical sites, although I do not compare my passion for it to his. As I read his last installment where he referred to the Fort William Henry massacre as "the Pearl Harbor of the French and Indian War", I simply sloshed into a puddle. Thank God everyone in the office was already gone!

I am sorry, Daddy Ponytail, for not heeding your encouragements for enlightened and illuminating reading. I have learned my lesson. Please tell Tim what a cool job he's doing and it is much appreciated! As are the few minutes you and Lainey contribute (HA, few minutes ...that was joke boss!) Boy, I REALLY wanna go there someday!.......Mmmmmmm, Someday!

P.S. Loved the courier addition as well!!!! Too funny!
