I’ve never been there, but if I recall my elementary school history correctly, the school children DID save their pennies. And in 1925, a penny meant much more than we can even imagine today.

Odd, but my history in America began in Boston/MA/The Colonies, and yet, I’ve never been there or had the inclination to do so. Maybe I need to save MY pennies and make the trip!

And with that, I’m off to bed. I can’t do anyone any good for the rest of the night, so I’m outta here.

You should go. Boston is worth it. What's the trail through the city called -- the Freedom Trail? And of course you MUST ride Charlie's MTA (but they call it something else now); an inexpensive way to cover some distance, as long as your destination is near a station, and it connects to the airport. (My last trip to the airport was faster even with a train change than a taxi would have been. And MUCH less expensive.)

I might be able to help out some.

Good night.
