Freedom Trail starting at the Boston Commons

 Not enough seats.
 Biz came to see everyone, he attends Boston College.
 The Shaw Memorial it was beautiful and the story behind it is touching.
 Sam Adams grave and our tour guide.  She had some interesting stories, I tried to stay close so I could listen as we walked.
 Paul Reveres house
For my mother.  The tour was fun and yet very cold.  It was about 20 degrees with the wind chill.  We walked over 3 miles in three hours and listened to the best stories.  In the commons they had hangings and then just buried the people everywhere.  Everyday people walk over thousands of unmarked graves.  The shots of the graves above are from a bit up the road.  3 signers of the Constitution are buried here.  This is worth doing.
