Will's Spring Break Trip to Boston (Mar 2009)

Will Muessig's Freshman Spring Break trip was delayed one year since he had been to Denver so many times - I think he said 15 in his 14 years! His sisters, Lori and Jeni, visited me in New York City and Philadelphia - my project work sites at the time. Will decided to not visit me at my current work site - Arlington, Texas - and narrowed his selection to Boston, Chicago, or California. I decided Boston would be a great city to visit in March and give Will the east-coast city experience. We had a great time combining sports, history, and food! We also managed to WALKl, a lot!

  • Day 2 – We started with our breakfast buffet at the hotel and then hopped on the Beantown Trolley which took us all around the city. This was a good thing as the weather was cold and the threatened rain finally started when we were waiting at the Boston Harbor for the tour to continue. After a quick rest in the hotel, we headed back to the North End for lunch at Pizzeria Regina and dessert at Mike's Pastry. We needed to "walk off" our food so we started the Freedom Trail walk and saw the Old North Church, James Rego Square (Paul Revere Mall), and the Paul Revere House before heading back to the hotel for a nap! We walked UP Beacon Hill and had dinner at Cheers.

  • Day 2 – Old North Church (Christ Church) - This beautifully proportioned brick church, designed in the style of Sir Christopher Wren, fairly overflows with historic assocations. It contains the oldest American church bells (cast in Gloucoster, England, and installed in 1745), the Revere family's pew, and a bust of George Washington that's believed to be the first memorial to the first president.

  • Day 2 – Old North Church - The strongest link is with Paul Revere, who arranged for sexton Robert Newman to hang two lanterns in the steeple on the night of April 18, 1775, signaling to the rebellious colonists that British troops were leaving Boston by water ("two if by sea"), bound for Lexington and Concord.

One of the best photo ops in the city is here: focus on the equestrian statue of Paul Revere, then allow the church steeple to stray into the frame.

  • Day 2 – North End - St. Stephens, one of three Roman Catholic houses of worship in the tiny North End, is the only standing church building in Boston designed by Charles Bullfinch. The design bears the hallmarks the architect's iconic style, including the symmetry that makes Federal architecture so pleasing to the eye.

  • Day 2 – Paul Revere House - With its good water supply and easy access to the harbor, the North End was one of the first areas of Boston settled by Europeans. The Paul Revere House, the oldest surviving house downtown, was built around 1680, inthe wake of a huge fire in 1676.

  • Day 2 – Paul Revere House - A talented silversmith who supported a large family - he had eight children with each of his two wives - Revere played an important role in the fight for independence. As tensions between British troops and colonists escalated in the last years of colonial rule, he monitored the royal soldiers' activities and helped to keep the Americans apprised of the progress of the rebellion.

  • Day 2 – Built around 1680, the Paul Revere House in the North End is a reminder that for Boston's first 2 centuries, buildings were mostly made of wood, and huge portions of the town regularly burned to the ground. The house is colonial in age but Tudor, rather than typically "colonial", in style. The casement windows and overhanging second floor are medieval features, and when the Reveres moved in, in 1770, the house was no longer fashionable.
