It's Patriiot's Day in Massachusetts and 4:00 AM on the Cape. Time to wake up...or we'll miss the 6:00 AM Lexington Green re-enactment of the first scirmish between the British and the American's -- the beginning of the Revolutionary War. There are a lot of people willling to get up early to see this event so bring a blanket, a ladder or just climb a tree -- otherwise you may not get a view. When it's over go to the visitor center and see the diarama of what happened that day. Better still drive to the Minuteman National Park and take in the multi-media show that recreates -- hour by hour -- the events that mark the beginning of the road to American Independence.
