Before leaving Hingham I finally was able to get a picture of this sign. Massachusetts has one for each of their towns and it's such a kick to drive from one town to another and see this sign with date of settlement started. Hard to get pictures because you don't know where the town line begins and there is no place to pull over for a quick stop and picture. It's a bummer. On this one I was lucky enough after a month to be driving towards sign and 1st at stoplight with camera next to me. ha! All these towns are so historic and have some wonderful history.

We finally made it to the "Heart Attack Grill" after hearing about this place from our good friends who have traveled west twice to go there! The 1st time they drove out from Georgia (on their trip west) and the place was closed for remodel. Then they came to visit us in Mesa and the place had closed and moved to Las Vegas. So here we are, to enjoy a double bypass burger for Joe! Only when we tried to get in the door it was locked! That's right folks, no entry! Their computer system was down so they locked he place up and all went home. We did see people in there and saw a few of the nurses who check your blood pressure while eating! Even spoke to one. Trouble with that excuse is they only take cash! So why does their computer system have anything to do with being down? Can't they do it old fashioned way and just write out a ticket? Big disappointment to say the least! Oh well, plans are to stop here again when traveling south in the fall so perhaps they will be open then?
