So, Sandra says take the red line "T" and go to Park Street. When you come out you are at Boston Commons and the Visitor Center is right there.
No problem, we found it without a hitch! But when I looked back to the place we came out from this is what I saw...just a little hut with a sign over the door that said "Entrance"! But what is the 'Entrance' for??? There is no sign what so ever! You just have to know it!
Just follow the "Red Brick line" on the road and you will follow the Freedom Trail! Now, every now and then you'll see this Medallion.
"Granary Burying Ground" -
We actually found the Resting Place for "Mother Goose"! or so the lore says...
Besides these two there are also stones for John Hancock & Paul Revere.
In front of the First Public School we found these "footprints" inlaid in the ground, right in front of the Donkey.
So, in this picture I am standing on the prints and butt head with 'it'!
"Old Corner Bookstore" they took the side down and advertise what they are selling now, jewelry!
Works by Dickens, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Howthorne, Longfellow & Tennyson were published here in the mid 1800's.
Hmmm...not on my map! This place just looked cute and had cobblestone road. We are still following the "Red Line"!
Paul Revere House, and no, we didn't go in!
Bunker Hill Monument, oh, well, no...we just finally met up with Clayton and Sandra, now we are on our way...it is behind Clayton, but not very visible.
I must be shrinking!!!
Hah, back in Quincy, VA. Sandra had pulled the chair over to watch TV, but then she had to get up and bake a cake. When she came back Cinnamon, the cat, had taken over the chair and curled up on it...so who's the Boss???!!!
Sandra finally did get herself another chair to sit on :-)
View of Boston from the sofa...yes, I didn't even get up and cross the living room! Big time zooming action!
Yes, Clayton did cook for us. He made Braised Lamb Shanks and served them with potatoes and carrots. Yumm! we had a good dinner, poor Sandra was not eating any of the lamb, she had her own "meat"!
And here is Sandra's participation for dinner...she made a Rhubarb cake after my mom's recipe. Yes, it also was very yummy, and she only needed minor help from me!
Sandra, you now know what 'Gustin' is, right...bought any yet? (Cornstarch)
