The Freedom Trail with Out-of-Towners

My friends Barry and Kori came out from Denver and stayed with me a couple nights. We walked the Freedom Trail and had a terrific visit. Here's a picture of Kori taking a picture of Barry taking a picture of the Union Oyster House, the oldest restaurant in the country.

People playing soccer under the Leonard Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge
The Bunker Hill Monument, 300 stairs to the top, whew!
On the Sunday preceding June 17 (Bunker Hill Day), they have the Bunker Hill parade. Here's the Bunker Hill parade from the top of the Bunker Hill Monument.

Can you read the inscription at this graveyard? It reads that this hill in Boston is "well-protected from the three great annoyances, of Woolves, Rattle-snakes, and Musketos."
