Boston and Much, Much More


For our 10 year anniversary Cort surprised me with a trip out to Boston. I have never been there and LOVE seeing new places and just driving around imagining what life is like for people who live there and what it would be like for me if I was born there. We drove up the coast to Maine, stopping in Salem, Mass., saw some witches, had brunch in Dorchester, Mass. at a quaint little place, drove through New Hampshire, and stopped at a beach in Kennebuckport, Maine along the way. It is so beautiful over there. It is so green and there is so much history. We also did as much tourist stuff in Boston that we could sneak in. The bridge where the shot heard around the world, Paul Revere's house, Bunker Hill, (my calves are still a little aching after walking up 294 steps to the top of Bunker Hill.), the Boston temple, Concord, Mass., Sleepy Hollow cemetery, Harvard in Cambridge, Mass., and then our last day we took a ferry over to Martha's Vineyard from Woods Hole and rented mopeds and cruised the island for the rest of the day. My favorite part of the whole trip was without a doubt, Salem, Mass. with all the witchy stuff, Sleepy Hollow cemetery and Martha's Vineyard. But it was all great. We put 649 miles on our rental car in 4 days. A trip to remember. For sure.
