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. Too bad so many have been neglected. Roads are terrible in most places and some are really run down while others thrive.. just like anywhere. Just interesting observations.

Our mad dash to Washington was all for the annual Mother's/Daughter tea at daughter Mary's church. It was so great to see her again and of course Rebekah who is growing like a weed! We picked up my ex-mother-in-law along the way so she could celebrate too. Four generations is not too bad. We all had a great time and enjoyed the day immensely. They really know how to put an event together there and the food was abundant and delicious!
