Look! We're in Boston!



Gordon had a seminar to attend in Boston for two days. We thought this was a great opportunity for both of us to explore the neat city and visit with my sister and her husband. And we are so glad we did, we had so much fun. My saint of a Mom came to our house and watched the kids, so it was a weekend for us! Jessica and Luke are so much fun, we had a hard time going to bed every night because no one wanted to stop having fun.

We walked part of the the Freedom Trail. Which has lots of historic sights along the way. Luke was a perfect tour guide, he knew lots of history and facts about most of the buildings along the way.


One of the original streets.

A statue recognizing the book "Make Way For Ducklings"

George Washington

Something I really liked was visiting the cemeteries and seeing the grave sites of so many remarkable people.



And take a look at this last one...

Mother Goose!


This is in front of John Kerry's house. And guess what! There was a key left in the door!


Us downtown.


Paul Revere


Gordon Chapel

And as a special treat I got to meet up with Leslie, an online friend I had never before met "irl"

It was a fabulous trip, thankyou Jessica and Luke for hosting us!
