Boston Trip, Rhode Island 4-19-2015

Spent the night in  Billerica, Massachusetts.  Went to church in Billerica, and in Sacrament meeting the bishop mentioned that that day, April 19th, was the anniversary of the Battle at Lexington and Concord (the shot heard round the world)...which happened within their ward boundaries.  We decided since we were in that area, on that day, we'd better go check it out.

 From Billerica we drove to see Plymouth Rock.  How funny is this?  The rock has been moved several time, so it's not in it's original spot.  One time while they were moving it it fell from the truck and broke.  People have used pieces of it for their front steps.  Anyway, it has been whittled down to this small rock.  They had to build a monument around it to make it look like a big deal.






 Next up, Rhode Island.  What a beautiful state!  I love the east coast!

We carb loaded at PieZoni's in Barrington, Rhode Island.  Then headed back to the hotel so Dean could get a good nights sleep....Big day tomorrow!
