Default Minuteman National Park
So, I've been watching "John Adams" on DVD again... it inspired me to drag the family and my camera out to Minuteman National Park on a lovely summer day. (We only live about 15 miles away.)

North Bridge, site of "The Shot Heard 'Round the World."
Bridge

The Minuteman Statue
Minute Man

The statue inscription
Minute Man2

I'm trying to figure out something interesting to do with the inscription photo, if anyone has any suggestions. I'm new to PS Elements and just downloaded GIMP and have a whole lot to learn.

Thanks!
