"I AM THE BOULDER"

I survived the ice age. From my perch on the hill, I held early pilgrims on my shoulders and listened to wild stories of past, I conversed with the Mohawk Indian tribes, and observed the creation of Fitchburg and it's surrounding communities. I survived a very serious injury during a blast, and what seems like an eternity where I was displaced and pieced together to my current resting place, a whole new episode of my life began, for I AM THE BOULDER, the indestructible icon of Fitchburg and local high school class-books. I am the recipient of curious visitors and photo opts, the observer of local government successes and failures, the catch all for mild and terrifying weather conditions, the observer of concerts, and the placement of local noted safety and sports figures monuments, all of which I have been able to withstand and proudly observe over the generations for I AM THE BOULDER, the pillar of my community, and the model of strength in perseverance.

—Story above by Mr. Robert (Bob) Boucher of California, an Ex Fitchburg Resident
