October 28th is the Statue of Liberty's 125th Anniversary. The Statue of Liberty was a gift from France as a sign of friendship and was dedicated on October 28, 1886. The Statue of Liberty symbolizes freedom throughout the world. I visited the Statue of Liberty for the first time last weekend. It is an awesome sight.

It is a fitting tribute, on Lady Liberty’s 125th Anniversary, to have the hardy participants of Occupy Wall Street “standing watch” a few miles north, across the harbor. If Lady Liberty could talk, I’m sure she’d tell them: Thank You..for keeping the torch of liberty burning brightly; Thank you..for helping to renew the freedoms and ideals upon which this great country was founded. She’d be proud!
