Hi Debbie... America has much history to reflect upon.  Monuments remind us.... for those who do not know or have forgotten their lessons in school.

Debbie, I used to work right near the Bunker Hill Monument.  I would spend my lunch hours walking through the historic streets of Charlestown taking photos of all the old houses.  Your post brings back good memories!  -Marian
