An other nudge from the; "Winds of Change", this was a 5 hr nudge, that fortunately generated sufficient Lift. (we're not in Dongguan any more)
Robbie, wish you were here......It's about 15 years since I last stopped in for tea. How time fly's when your having fun ..
I'm a couple of hundred plus years late for this party ... This one was All about the MONEY (taxes)... "Once vigorous measures appear to be the only means left to bringing the Americans to a due submission to the mother country, the colonies will submit." -King George III
"If our trade be taxed, why not our lands, in short, everything we posses? They tax us without having legal representation." -Samuel Adams
One of my favorite stories from "American History", along with its far reaching consequences, reverberating to this day.
On the morning of December 17, 1773, a young John Robinson collected a souvenir tea chest from the Boston Tea Party the night before. Passed down from generation to generation for over two centuries, the Robinson Tea Chest has endured as a symbol of American freedom and the birth of a nation.
