Heading Home – Massachusetts to Ohio
Boston was a terrific stopover for 3 days and worth so much more time. It’s rich in history, culture, and educational institutions. From the JFK Library and Museum, to Boston Common, to Concord and Lexington we try to absorb it all but only touched the surface.
First Parish, Lexington
Hancock – Clarke Parsonage, 1717
Old Hill Burying Ground
Concord Town Hall
Park Street Church, built 1809
Boston Common
Old State House
The Embrace, bronze sculpture depicting arms of MLK and Coretta Scott King

The JFK Library and Museum
This is a very funny and charming letter to Jackie Kennedy
This 1960 electoral map indicates how much the population has changed in the US in 60+ years. Many blue states were once red, and red states were once blue!
Across Massachusetts via Hwy 2, a Blue Highway that we always enjoy. In Albany we have the pleasure of staying with my step-sister/cousin Pat and her spouse, Marion. They always show us a good time wherever we visit them.
