Boston Part II


This is the poor church that burned down, so Joanne's ward meets in a beautiful cathedral across the street.


David was happy after church was out.



This is how Anya keeps her toys from other kids, namely Emmilene.

Boston LDS Temple





Lexington Leaves










Louisa May Alcott's childhood home. It took us a long time to get the Maypole right.



Pictures before people started leaving for their various States/Countries.




Emmilene and I stayed a little longer with mom and dad and saw Salem. It really makes the most of it's history of witches and ... pirates?

The City of Brotherly Love


While Sonja was here, we visited her old stomping grounds in Philadelphia (I always spell that wrong!). We ate good Amish food, saw the Bell, and a lot of people dressed up. We also saw a lot of Murals and payed homage to Rocky.










Emmi throwing money in the fountain. This reminds me that we saw a beggar guy use a cane to steal coins from Benjamin Franklin's Gravethrough a fence. It was quite funny, sorry no picture.

SONJA!

We had a great visit from my dear sister who was working on a movie in Boston. We did lots of stuff... Liberty Island, Brooklyn Bridge (and pizza, and ice cream, and 8 Japanese brides), and the Intrepid Museum, to name a few.













We won tickets to, "The 39 Steps" which was great!


We ran into the "Naked Cowboy" swooning women in Times Square. The picture is blurred to protect the young. He was running for mayor...

Thanks for coming, Sonja! Hopefully next time you babysit for us it will go a little better!

Rachie Rach and the C man.

I know it was awhile ago, but thanks for visiting us!  We forgot our camera most the time, you may recall, which is why there is a picture of the NYSE.

Please come again!
