Hi Gang!

From the Bennington Revolutionary War Monument a coupla days ago:

Not too shabby.

Actually it's the Battle of Bennington Monument which was fought in New York during the Revolutionary war . Don't ask it's a long story. It's a lot of steps up that obelisk.

Flatlanders, they never get anything right.

LOL!

"Bennington Battle Monument" is, I believe, the correct name. Just figured calling it what I did would make more sense to those from outside of the Northeast.

Hadn't been there since I was a kid, and was surprised to find that the stairs are closed, and the only way up is by elevator.

Freakin' Hill people...

Btw, Doc, we spent a night in Bristol. Pretty country...

Here's a video tour of the monument. I noticed they didn't show the John Stark statue, the actual commander at the battle and a NH man, until the end. Seth Warner, Commander of the Green Mtn. Boys, is pictured first. The GMB sacrificed themselves at the Battle of Hubbarton in order to slow down the British and give Stark time to prepare.

The flag of Vt. independence.

I won't take up too much more space with photos, but these are worth seeing, IMO...
