BostonMass Trip - 9/10-9/14

I had to go to Boston, MA the week of 9/10-9/14 for work training. The city was OK, but the food was outstanding. I probably gained five pounds eating all the great seafood - crab, scallops, and lobster. I have some good family history in Boston - my Dad lived Winchester, MA (about 9 miles north of the city) for 10 years (from 1949-1959). I had some extra time one afternoon, so I went by both of the houses:

145 Highland Ave. Winchester, MA

This isn't the original house - it was torn down and replaced by this one. It's a shame, because the neighborhood is very historic, and this house is a bit of an eyesore.

47 Emerson Road Winchester, MA

This is the second house where Dad lived in Winchester. The house is in relatively good shape, and is closer to town - an easier walk to the school. Dad remembered this house well - he used to practice hockey in the garage.
