Boston

The Old North Bridge.
The Minute Man Statue.
This statue was modeled after my ancestor Isaac Davis.  A Minuteman and the first Colonial officer to loose his life in the Revolutionary War.
Orchard House: The home of Louisa May Alcott's "Little Women."
 
The Boston Temple
 Riding the T into Boston.
We found one of John's ancestors, Nathaniel Heaton, buried in the Old Granary Burial Ground.  We looked and looked for his headstone and found him buried amongst the crowds at John Hancock's grave.
 Swordfish and Clam Chowder for lunch at Quincy Market. 
The boys at the Old North Church.
 Aboard the USS Constitution.
