Continued from:
We headed to the North Shore. We had not planned to visit Duxbury Pier, but a look at my new Map and Guide said it was visible. We went for it. Saw a repair shop with some nice old Rovers, too.
And of course, when in Plymouth and in sight of it, one MUST see Plymouth Rock. Yes, this is the famed Plymouth Rock. Yep, that's it. Kinda smaller than I thought. I was thinking something...bigger.
We also saw the Mayflower II, but I didn't get a photo.
Next stop: Scituate. As noted on these forums, it is undergoing renovation. Thus, my photos have LOTS of scaffolding. The High Wind Advisory talked of on the radio proved true - I opened the door of the Rover, and a brochure I had had inside instantly flew out of the car and over the seawall. A trashcan almost hit the car, too. I didn't even bother closing the door.
Next stop was Minots Ledge. I was looking forward to this one. We got REALLY lost, but somehow found the tiny town of Minot, MA, complete with post office. I learned two more things about Bay Staters:
1) You guys sure like your tall concrete seawalls.
2) Have you EVER heard of putting both street names on a streetsign?!?! :rolleyes:
This photo was taken with my 32x digital zoom, but at this small size, it still has some detail.
Another unplanned stop...but how could this one be missed? We HAD to see Boston Harbor Light, first in the nation! And what a light!
Also, Graves Light.
We then descended into the Big Dig (was looking for a patrol car, BobM...isn't that where you are stationed?) What a technological marvel! An overbudget marvel, but nonetheless a marvel.
