Check this site out. This is where I went today. My family lived in that house for over a 100 years, and a few years ago the historical society bought it and built my cousin who lived there a house behind this property. Today it was officially incorporated into the Minute Man Historical Park.

For those of you familiar with the Revolutionary War: This house was the home of Col. James Barrett. When Paul Revere did his famous ride, word got to Col. Barrett that the "British were coming!". They were coming specifically to this house for the munitions stored there (enough to arm 15,000 men). The family literally plowed the canons, firearms and ammunition into the field next to the house, and when the British soldiers came to the house, they found nothing and Col. Barrett's wife served them breakfast as fighting broke out at the Old North Bridge- the "shot heard 'round the world".

Admittedly, the house had fallen into disrepair in the last 25 years or so, but remained historically accurate, which pleases the preservationists. The last few years have been spent renovating the house to it's former glory and is now being turned into a museum. A lot more work (and fundraising for over $700K needed!) to go!

Day 5- Stafford Trip with Melisa

I can't just give up. I love taking photos. Just because I lost some, doesn't mean I should stop taking them... right?

So here are some I took the other day. I had my camera set on "vivid" through most of it, so that's why some of the colors jump out more than probably normal.

And if you're one of the artists featured here today, that stuff is great. I hope you don't mind I took photos of it!

Day 4- Death and Destruction.

Whatever. I give up.

My hard drive got knocked over this morning. I just plugged it back in, and its making a bit of a buzzing noise and the computer won't recognize it.

All my photographs are gone.

If anybody knows how to or knows someone that can recover hard drive files, cheaply... please let me know. I can't afford to shell out hundreds of dollars. I really just can't.

The Last Photo

This is the last photo I was working on... I wasn't done with it. But this blog probably won't get updated for a little while... I don't know. I'm really discouraged about losing the photos.
