BOSTON

Even though we have a great GPS Margie always made sure we were heading in the right direction.

This is the north bridge Paul Revere crossed to warn the people that the redcoats were coming. We spent several hours in Concord & Lexington and learned much of our great minute men and their sacrifice that lead to our freedom.
The Boston Uminski's. What a blast it was to be with them all. Uncles Steve and Lenny had us on the floor laughing. They are indeed the brothers of Tony. No doubt. Aunt Felicia was kind enough to let us crash at her place. It was a great reunion.
Our personal tour guide, he is "the" Paul Revere. We met him inside the State Building and ran into him again outside. He let us know that he is the reincarnated Paul Revere. So it was a great treat for us to have had a private tour of Boston by one of our founding fathers.
Bunker Hill. Many men died here defending our country and Margie almost died here climbing the 294 steps to the top. Don't worry, just as the men conquered their enemies Margie conquered the steps and made it to the top.
We will miss the Uminski's of Boston. But fear not we will return. We'll grab our kakis and get into our ka and make the trip back as soon as we can!
