All the way from Boston to DC

Too long has passed since our last post. Here's one to hopefully make up for that.

After our day in Boston, as was mentioned, we had a wonderful dinner with my dad at the Wayside Inn, which was full of history and delicious food. Our waitress deserves another special thanks for giving us all those extra treats.

My dad went with us on a whirlwind tour of the Lexington/Concord area and we saw everything from musket demonstrations to the place where Revere, Dawes and Prescott were stopped by the British. We also stopped by the Wayside Inn during the day and saw the chapel and the Grist Mill, where they still make flour. Some of our other stops included Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, the Colonial Inn, Harvard, MIT and Walden Pond.

The Minuteman Monument.

After those quick days, we were on our own again. We made our way toward Springfield, home of the Springfield Armory.

Safety first at the Armory.

After we saw the multitude of guns and history, we saw the Dr. Seuss memorial sculpture garden, (he was born in Springfield) and headed toward DC. We stopped by Ben's relatives in Maryland, (I think I left my scarf there.) and headed into Virginia.
