The Departed made 93 look like a country road.

Of course the real fun is when there is construction.

God, hated driving anywhere in that city.

” ( although I think Route 128 is now Route 95 is it not?)”


Yes and no. It runs with 95 for a good distance,it runs alone up on the North Shore,and also runs with Route 1 for a distance.

Durgin Park

Prime Rib, Baked Beans, Indian Pudding.

Nuff said.

It’s an eccentric place, but the food is plentiful and delicious.

We were there last fall. I thought the Freedom Trail was a great way to do it. Almost every few steps, there’s something historic and interesting. And the North End has the best Italian food anywhere!

P Town is an old fishing town—the first place the Pilgrims landed. The whole gay PTown thing has gone away quite a bit since the gay marriage movement has gone the way of the horse carriage.

I like visiting there. Its fun.

Omni Parker House is a great idea. Nice view of Old North Church from Tremont St near there. Very close to the Granary Burying Ground -- go pay your respects to Sam Adams and many others. Grave of William Billings on Boston Common -- the composer of "Chester"

Let tyrants shake their iron rod,
And Slav'ry clank her galling chains,
We fear them not, we trust in God,
New England's God forever reigns.
