The London Trip: Day 1
After a week of recovery and trying to get back into the mode of college classes, I have finally found the time to sit down and tell you all about the awesome trip my brother Jacob and I took on fall break.

Some of the Governor Bradford Chapter NSDAR members getting ready for the parade! We handed out little United States flags to the kids along the parade route. The children would get a little glimmer of excitement in their eye when they saw us coming along to hand out flags. They…
