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.

Today stayed home and joined in the fun at afternoon cribbage at the lodge. Fun to see old friends again.
