Old North Church at Forest Lawn Cemetery--Hollywood Hills

Today is Patriot's Day in Massachusetts--which of course coincides with the annual running of the Boston Marathon. The holiday commemorates the first battles of the Revolutionary War, Lexington and Concord, which was fought on April 19, 1775.

Lanterns hung at Old North Church in Boston alerted the patriots that British troops were on the march and Paul Revere began his storied ride.

Last last year at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Los Angeles Mrs. Marathon Pundit took this photograph of a replica of Old North Church at the famous graveyard.

As for the 2013 Boston Marathon bombers, jihadists Tamerlan Tsarnaev and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the first one is dead and the other is rotting in jail.

Freedom prevails.
