The Bedford Flag is the oldest complete flag known to exist in the United States. It is celebrated as the flag carried by the Bedford Minuteman, Nathaniel Page, to the Concord Bridge on April 19, 1775, the beginning of the American Revolution, but it was already an antique on that day. It was made for a cavalry troop of the local Massachusetts Bay militia early in the eighteenth century.

A near miss occurred recently in my home town that made one of the emotive building engineer's YouTube shorts. It's the water tower that landed in someone's front yard at 34 seconds in the video.


Here's a pic of my youngest and her friend getting a detail of one of the turnbuckles on that very tower in 2014.
