My kids will love to see them Jonny, my grandma was from there so they like hearing about Boston.
Jasper won't be too impressed though - no tattoos! 
Thank you, that was a lovely thought

One of these days soon, I hope, Renon and I will be back to visit Boston. A half day there was not nearly enough. So much to see and the people are great.
Thanks for the pics Jonny.

Very cool stuff Jonny and Chewy 
I have to make it up that way for pleasure sometime. The only time I have been to Boston or the surrounding areas was on Biz trips and I couldn,t wait to leave. The drivers up there are nuts and the streets are laid out purposly to confound the mid western visitors ( which I was at the time)
Oh yeah and the Celtics were playing that night and it was a madhouse!!!

Great pics on that site Chew, the Indian site too. I got to wondering who that Indian statue was in Jonny's pics, just quickly found this, could be maybe:
The Wamanoag's sachem, Massasoit welcomed the first English settlers at Plymouth and participated in the first Thanksgiving in 1621.
http://www.downtownio.com/history.htm
I wonder if Massachusettes took its name from him.

Not sure about that Jonny.
Massasoit Statue: A historic bronze statue by Cyrus Dallin(1861-1944) stands near the Sarcophagus near Plymouth Rock. Massasoit, the chief of the Wampanoag Indians, befriended the Pilgrims and helped them to survive their first winter in Plymouth. The Wampanoags survive today in the Mashpee area on Cape Cod.

No picture but is that where it's at?
You're just gonna have to go find out for us now.
