Nope. Not going to do it. I try to cull my photos to about ten or so each day. Ain’t happening today.
This morning, Noni dropped me off at the Hyannis bus station so I could take the bus into Boston for the day. Following an uneventful bus ride, I found myself back in the city I loved as a college student. What to do? I strode over to the Freedom Trail and explored the historical sights, buildings, and cemeteries. The first time I did this was in 1978! The city, cleaner and livelier than when I first meandered its streets, enraptured me yet again.
So happy to be roaming the streets of Boston!

Hancock Tower reflecting Trinity Church. During my senior year, I volunteered weekly for The Samaritans, a suicide hotline located in the basement of the Hancock Tower. I remember vividly chatting with lonely and scared people who mainly needed someone to listen to and acknowledge them.
