Been back to New England for some fall color, and even though we missed the peak and it rained every day, it was fun. I will come back again one of these years. And the history.... Really enjoyed reliving our revolutionary past and walking on roads and floors that George Washington, Paul Revere and other have walked on. Amazing. It really taxed my brain to recall what I learned in 5th and 6th grade. But those nuns did a great job as I remembered quite a lot from the early 60's.

Not too many like that here in New England... but we do have our autumn leaves and a lot of historic places. Thanks for showing them.
