Preservation of historical sites

[Matt Macoubrie]

Heath, preservation is so key and I am glad you are educating people on that! For instance, I heard that the point where Washington crossed the Delaware was going to be taken out . . . explain that one? It is so sad to see historical places go under. In addition, I remember touring Madison's home at Montpeiler, and it was sad to think that someone tore down his house just to make it the way the new owner wanted it. I could never understand that, and it is sad to think that people care that little about historical sites here in the United States. If I were to live in a president's home . . . I certaintly would restore it so that generations and generations could enjoy it. I might never get to see the effects of my work, but my kids and their kids will, which is why preservation is SOOOOO important! Way to go Heath!
