where we been
Oct. 15th, 2013 12:30 pmI had Friday off and Monday's a holiday so we took a little road trip out to Boston to visit Neil and Mike and Prairie and Mike and Carol and Mara and Christian. It was kinda cool! We hit some antique places and Salem Willows and Barrett's Haunted Mansion.
At Barrett's as we were in line, one visitor fainted from excitement or something and was taken away by EMTs and then we watched as the cast of monsters assembled to surprise a couple as they exited - and then there was a surprise marriage proposal. She said yes! After the haunt we went to dinner in the ale house next door and saw the happy couple leaving, and applauded all over again. We had a great dinner and then watched the Red Sox beat Detroit in a bar full of Red Sox fans, which was kinda cool.
Went to Nahant with lots of great scenery.
Saturday the weather was cool and misty, which didn't make for beach weather, but it fit the landscape, I think. Sunday the weather was a lot nicer. Monday it was nice and sunny and we drove back home. In the Mohawk Valley things got rainy again and we stopped in Little Falls NY to do some more antiquing.
Beautiful little town full of big gothic churches and little row houses on the Erie Canal. Worth a stop if you're in the area. And then we got home and here we are!
