All the cool people were in Boston this weekend, where were you?!

[Alison]

Okay, since I'm home first I guess I get to kick of this thread....the key players in this meetup were myself, Corry (Core_17), Joe (ClarinetJWD) and Sky (Unimaxium)....and introducing Chris (Pigeon Chaser). It was cold, we got lost, we had fun. That should sum it up

1. Chris (my oldest son) waiting for the train to Boston


2. On the train, eating a candy bar bought with money from the grandparents


3. Are we there yet? No Chris, this is only the 2nd stop


4. Ticket to ride


5. Gravesite of Paul Revere


6. Corry, Joe & Sky


7. A little story....Chris was running around saying "I'm a bird, I'm a bird" and I said, "Hey Chris, birds don't talk!" And this was the look I got


8. How many chimpers can you count?


9. Chris and the pigeons/seagulls. Oh my. All he wanted to do was chase them...I'm sure the others captured this as well...


10. Two men, a boy and a tripod


10a. In black & white


11. Is this a mugging in process? Nope, just Corry and Joe doing....I'm not sure


12. City Hall


13. What?! Geez Mom.


14. View of the city from inside part of the Holocaust memorial


15. Bricks outside...um...somewhere


16. One in every crowd


17. Joe laughing at Chris


18. Chris laughing at Joe


19. No explanation needed


20. Marketplace lights

22. More lights


23. Looking up


24. Pretty brickwork


25. For the Darksiders


26. Legal Sea Food.


27. Apartments


28. What's a TPF meetup without getting lost?


29. The map was good, lack of street signs in Boston was bad


30. More pigeon chasing....and this glove is now missing


31. A very happy boy


32. Only in Boston do you wear a winter hat and eat ice cream


33. The "I don't want to go home" pout


34. MMMMMMMMM


35. A little something for Mom to help make it the 2 hours home

[Pigeon Chaser]

5. A bus (Mom wouldn't let me ride it )


6. Looking up in the Holocaust memorial


7. Look! A pigeon!


8. I didn't know my sister had a store named after her!


9. A horse! (Mom didn't let me ride on this, either )


10. Joe & Sky

12. The sky, not the person Sky, but the real sky.

[oldnavy170]

Alison these are great photos. I really enjoyed them. Looks like you guys (and girls) had a great time!!!!

[Brendens_Mom]

These are awesome, it looked like Chris had a good time with the birds...

Alison, great work and very interesting commentary. It very much reminds me of our trip to Boston last year and how much we want to go back. Getting lost sounds very familiar. We had dinner in the Quincey Market area, Green Dragon, if I remember right. Then we walked across a hugh open street area under construction and into the area where the Paul Revere house is. Great architecture and neighbourhood to walk around. We were lucky as we had a local showing us around at that point.

Looking forward to seeing more from everyone.

Yippieh: the Boston Meet-Up thread has begun ... aaaaaand TPF has a new member and the world a new - pigeon chasing - photographer. Budding still but already very promising.

So who wrote the story, is it all our little Pigeon Chaser's own words here!? Whatever, these are his very own photos and he is GOOD.

All the pics are good.
But it looks COLD ... brrr!

[clarinetJWD]

There's some very good work going on there, and you sure beat me too it! I hope to have my photos up on Wednesday after my exam.

[Corry]

Awww! Great pictures! A few of them don't seem to be working though, Alison.

I think our lil' Pigeon Chaser did a great job, too!

[Alison]

Which ones aren't working, Corry? Let me know and I'll look into it

Corinna, yes, these are his own words

[Big Mike]

I didn't notice any that weren't working...

Great photos and captions...I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the shots.

[Corry]

Which ones aren't working, Corry? Let me know and I'll look into it

Corinna, yes, these are his own words

It was about 5 or 6 of them, but now all but 10 and 25 are showing.

EDIT: And #6 on the Lil' Pigeon Chaser's post.
