Spent the day with old friends visiting Boston walking the steps where our coutries forefathers probably walked. We walked through Paul Revere's House. He is the most famous resident but it was lived in continously for over 200 years. Now it is a museum. We walked through the Old North Church where the signal lanterns were lit April 18, 1775. Old North Church was built in 1723 making it one of the oldest churches in America. It is still used for services on Sunday mornings. Amazing to walk among history and not just read about it in a book. Leo got a book about the Freedom Trail and will tell you all about it.
Our day started out with the kids eating a picnic lunch at Northend Park and then playing in the water fountains. Which was so much fun. Northend Park is one of several parks that has been added to Boston since the freeway has gone under ground. I really am enjoying Boston and the stuff to do down there. I also enjoy being up in our neck of the woods.
