Some pictures from our Massachusetts trip this month for business and some site seeing of Revolutionary War spots of interest in Lexington and Boston. I also got to find some relatives old haunts and climbed around Rev War cellar holes. In Boston-the Declaratn of Independence
was read first from this balcony. In front of same building is
where the Boston Massacre occurred.
