The revolution

On Father’s Day we visited Grammy Jeanne again and then had a yummy sausage and meatball lunch before heading out to minute man national historic site. We walked through Lexington and concord and the north bridge.  Lots of American history right here.

We walked the path between Lexington and concord seeing some historical sites including where Paul Revere was capture the morning after his midnight ride. We learned about the shot heard around the world and saw some very old buildings including a house that Ralph Waldo Emerson and Nathaniel Hawthorne lived in. 

We checked into the hotel and there happened to be a melting pot a block away. So we got the kids some food and headed over to our favorite restaurant to learn we couldn’t get in… uggh 

We had a nice Father’s Day dinner at the Cheesecake Factory and headed back to get some rest. Boston tomorrow…
