The mayflower II sets sail return home to Boston

I'd it wrong that I feel very emotional over an antique ship? It has been in CT getting renovation and repairs done. And today, she sets sail to return back home to Boston / Plymouth In time for the 400th anniversary of the original ship arriving here to begin what has now become American.  The United States of America. We have gone through as a country, so much turmoil,  battles, wars. Industrial revolutions, separated from a mother country over the fact on taxes/ and being here to be free. They sent their outcasts and then our own state of liberty. LADY LIBERTY says "bring me your tired your poor..." We are where dreams are built. Dreams are made. Yet this era we live in now, we are crumbling. We were able to join together when the world trade center / the twin towers fell crumbling down. Now look at us, falling apart because we need to stand together over a virus. Alas, I am digressing and this is not what I wished this post to be about. This ship, the mayflower.
