Paul Revere Day

April 7, 2009

“‘Twas the 18th of April in ’75, hardly a man is now alive who remembers that famous day and year, and the midnight ride of Paul Revere . . .”

I have always thought Paul Revere Day was one of America’s greatest holidays.  It’s a lot more exciting than celebrating a bunch of gouty old men sitting around in a smoke-filled room signing their names.  This year the Best of Breed judging at the Cardigan National Specialty will take place on Paul Revere Day — Saturday, April 18th.

Join me in wearing red, white and blue — for fun AND to make a statement!  You can spread this idea to every Middlesex village and farm!

    We have a tradition up here in the frozen north to wear red on Friday – to support our troops.

    BOB on Paul Revere Day? That means you all will be bringing home lots of silver!

    Here’s hoping — seems to me the Declaration of Independence/Constitution litter should have a legup for competition that day !
