I know you would enjoy visiting Boston so much, as you are such a fan of history.<br /><br />I wish my Dad was still here, he would have enjoyed giving you a tour of Boston. He was born in Worcester and went to Boston College. He loved history and taught American History in high school.<br /><br />When he served in the U S Navy in World War Two, their ship made a stop in Miami and he decided then, 'after the war, I am going to marry Terese and we are moving to Miami.'<br /><br />John and Terese Donohue did marry, moved to Miami and raise a family of seven children. Many summers included vacations to Boston and the Freedom Trail, so wonderful, so full of history. Outdoor concerts with the Boston Pops - fantastic!<br /><br />For sure, Angela, I hope you get to visit Boston - you will feel 'right at home!'<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2167015610970367792.post-46467395791500413752016-05-29T11:46:14.610-04:002016-05-29T11:46:14.610-04:00My daughter and her hubs are there right now. On F...My daughter and her hubs are there right now. On Friday they had perfect weather and did the 8 mile Freedom Trail walk. Yesterday was super hot and they did the Sam Adam Brewery tour. They've been busy and having a ton of fun. I've stopped there for a half day on several New England Cruise tours with Princess Cruise Lines and we keep doing it over and over (in the fall) and have had perfect weather each time we've done it. Starts in NYC and hops all the way to New Brunswich Nova Scotia. But hitting the US coastal towns is a fav. We've done something new in Boston each time. The first time we did a bus tour to learn all about the founding of our nation there and saw all the buildings, after that we hit museums. We always find a fun Irish pub so I can have a delicious pink and we can get fish n chips. : - )<br /><br />I *highly* recommend that cruise tour - it's such an easy way to see the awesome NE coast, affordable and great food and as stated: EASY. It's easy on the mind, body and soup to take cruises. It's our fav to be sure. Hugs. <br /><br />Let Freedom Ring.....Forever! ♥♥♥<br /><br /><br /><br />Michele M./ Finch Resthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08971943265328093734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2167015610970367792.post-76950654642928398122016-05-28T22:48:23.997-04:002016-05-28T22:48:23.997-04:00The punch sounds good.

If the distance between two spots, the same in both photos, is no more wide than your pupils you should be able to view. <br /><br />There are a couple of ways to view, stare into the distance with your face centered about 10 to 12 inches from the image. Keep your head level, relax your eyes and just stare into the distance and the two become one photo where you can see the depth. Some people have more success staring at the image cross eyed.<br /><br />Love all the detail, what a fancy way of shopping for tea, I can hear the swishing of ladies skirts. ;)Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16189629198731167198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2167015610970367792.post-10089550764780177552016-05-28T11:40:51.535-04:002016-05-28T11:40:51.535-04:00You would *adore* Boston!
