I LOVE Samuel Adams! This is the church that was PACKED the night of the Boston Tea Party. At his signal, 100 or so men dressed in blankets and black 'indian' paint let the British know what we really thought of the taxation without representation. On my last evening in Boston I was alone, as Lisa and Parker went home ahead of me, and the flight I was SUPPOSED to take was 'having engine problems' (or more likely just not full enough for AMERICAN AIRLINES). I must say, I didn't mind. In fact, I went back for round TWO at the Ocean Aire, where I made MORE orthodontic friends, and then wandered along the Freedom Trail in the misty rain. I made it all the way to the beginning of the 'Trail' which includes the gravesite of Samuel Adams, James Otis, and Benjamin Franklin. Unfortunately I didn't have the camera, although it was nice to have the evening to myself with nothing to distract me from the expereince.
I did Boston 5 years ago when the Graduate Orthodontic Resident Program (Party) was held at Harvard. At that time I skipped many of the classes to drink in Bostons history. Loved it both times.
