Take me out to the ball game

If only I had longer arms, impossible to take a photo of myself but here I am before I went to a Red Sox game.

I'm not a fan of the all American Mall. My hotel was connect to their major mall where they had very chic-chic expense stores such as Saks Fifth Aveneue and Needless Mark Up (my name for the over price store) but living in Los Angeles high end stores or malls is no big deal. What I enjoyed was walking down Newbury Street and finding delightful cafes, coffee shops, book stores and cute shops along the walk.

Paul Rever's Ride

"He springs to the saddle, the bridle, he turns,
But lingers and gazes, till full on his sight
A second lamp in the belfry burns.
A hurry of hoops in a village street,"
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

One fact I learned on my tour through the Freedom trail was the fact that he was married twice, his first wife died and he had 16 children! Busy man!

Listen my children and you shall hear of the midnight ride of Paul Revere

"Of the North Church tower as a signal light-
One if by land, and two if by sea:"
