We are back, we had a great time, we are tired and I have posted a few of our 575 pictures. Enjoy!
Day one: We walked the Freedom Trail, Old Boston is pretty much what it was, the Old State House, North Church, stuff like that. These friendly folk were the tour guides.
This is Paul Revere's house at the North End, now part of Little Italy. We had the best pastries in Little Italy, yum yum.

This is the oldest restaurant in the country, Ye Olde Union Oyster House. Oh my gosh the clam chowder was amazing.
Fenway Park was awesome. What a true part of Boston culture, WOW. We lost in the eleventh inning, but it was a great game.


Day Two: Boston Light House. The oldest Light House site in the country. The British destroyed the original one, but it was quickly rebuilt. We took a boat through Boston Harbor to get there and were able to climb to the top, breathtaking.
We also saw the most amazing firework, live right on the shores of the Charles river.

Day Three: We didn't get to bed until 4 a.m. after a little unplanned event, but got up early and drove the three and a half hours to Augusta, Maine. This is where David spent a great deal of time on his mission. This first Family pic is the Leighton family. The youngest boy (the short one in the back) was less than a year old when Dave was there. Crazy. Dave has a picture of two of the boys wrestling when they were little. It was fun to meet them and have lunch with them. 
Family number two were the Fletchers. So nice. Their oldest was two when Dave was there. We had a great time catching up with them and seeing their beautiful property.
Day Four: Half the day on the coast of Maine. Gorgeous and wonderful and would love to spend the rest of my life there. Awesome. And of course we had to have lobster from a little dinky shack right on the harbor. Cheap meal, super great atmosphere and dead fish. 

The restroom for the shack was an porta-potty and a wash basin with a hose to spray off lobster juice. Eew.
The coast was so beautiful. This spot was called Pemaquid Point. The light house is on the back of the Maine State Quarter.

WoW! Those are some gorgeous pictures! I really want to go there! So glad you're back, we all missed you....:) My favorite picture was of the legs and feet hanging over the ocean. Sweet. Love ya, Cam
Looks like an awesome trip. Very jealous. Thanks for sharing. :)
The unplanned event didn't have anything to do with an injury did it? I mean, it was almost a family reunion with David Spencer and David Brian there together... wouldn't want anyone to get hurt, now would we? Wouldn't want anyone to squirt poison in thier eye on a the subway, would we? People might start talking...
I have to plead the fifth on that one Alan, sorry. :)
Dear Stacee: I've made my blog private...so I need your email address so that I can invite you to view my blog. Can you e me at camille418@gmail.com and tell me your email? Thanks! :)
you are a very lucky girl to have a husband who loves you so much to take you to boston with NO KIDS!!!
Never mind Stacee. I'm leaving my blog open, I didn't know so many people were reading it! Too many people wanted me to re-invite them and it was a pain, so I'm just leaving it open. I was going to close it because I want to put pictures on again. Do YOU think it's okay? Well, obviously you do! You put pictures on yours! Lol! I think I'll be okay. So, anyway. Hey. Thursday at 12:00, we're all meeting at McDonalds for lunch, so that everyone can bring their kids. Can you come?
Cami
