Davis Farmland

Yesterday we gathered up a pile of little cousins (Mine, Shannon's, Sharon's and Diane's) and headed off to Davis Farmland for an awesome day of feeding the animals and enjoying the splashpark and playground. Brenna (almost 10) is the oldest followed by Nolan (9), Michael (almost 8) Molly (7) Aidan (6) Nick (almost 6) Jackson (almost 5) Brody (2) and Kathryn (21 mos.) The kids were fabulous and, as always, have the best time hanging out together.
And oh please - will you take a look at this little darling? Good God I could EAT her!

Boston Harbor Islands

The weather was predicted to be hot and humid in the city today so we took to the water instead! It had been ages since I was out on the harbor ferry so that's what we decided to do today.


First stop - George's Island and Fort Warren

Standing on the ramparts Evidently Molly doesn't like dark corridors!!

View from the top of the fort

Little Brewster lighthouse off on the left - First in the country - since 1716


Then we hopped over to Spectacle Island to do some swimming.
There was a nice display at the Visitor Center there



So there you have it - more of Boston explored!
