Intending to go to Boston, never made it there. Went through it, but didn't stop. Walked Cambridge till feet cried "uncle!" Visited Peacefield, John Adams' Estate at Braintree.
Trip highlight: getting in tune viewing rainbow over sprinkling fountain on Harvard campus.
Braintree is the birthplace to Presidents John Adams, and John Quincy Adams, as well as statesman John Hancock and General Sylvanus Thayer. Braintree is also the site of the infamous Sacco and Vanzetti murders as well as the retirement home of the co-inventor of the telephone Thomas Watson.
