We spent the rest of the day touring Lexington and Concord, where the Revolutionary War began. We saw a really neat multi-media presentation about the fight and the Minute Men, toured another historic, Revolutionary era home, and watched a musket firing demonstration.
As a bit of fun on the side, Wyatt and Dad rigged up a little fishing pole out of a stick, some line, and a fly, and caught Bluegills right out of the pond next to the historic battle site! It was a lot of fun, and the boys got to go fishing again, which always pleases them.
Tomorrow we'll tour Boston, hiking the Freedom Trail and visiting the Mother Church, the original First Church of Christ, Scientist location. And, hopefully, we'll eat at the Union Bay Oyster House, the oldest continually operating restaurant in the U.S. Now, it's bed time!
