Today was a big day. First, Mr. Mill picked us up (with Andrew and Meg in tow). We then left on a 7-hour tour (guided by Mr. Mill) of Lexington and Concord. It was real exciting seeing where all the first battles and the shot heard around the world happened. Dad told me that there was this tavern, which, over the front door, had a bullet hole with a circle around it, saying "This is the first Shot heard around the world." I figured that the tavern had been torn down, because we didn't find it.
