Shot heard around the world April 19, 1775
April 19, 1775, second most important day in the modern history of the world
"By the rude bridge that arched the flood Their flags to April’s breeze unfurled, Here once the embattled farmers stood, And fired the shot heard round the world.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Being so close to where our country started, I love learning about it, from YT to walking through Minuteman National Park. You can really feel the men who died to create our country.
So little national media attention on the 250th anniversary. This was pretty good.
