Default Boston Strong

Down in Boston for the past few days on Business.
A Conference at the Hynes Convention Center on
Boylston Street where the Marathon runs past !.
City is making a good recovery - Big Boston 1 Fund
setup to help all the Victims of the Bombing.

Couple of Pics of a great City with Great People from
the weekend - Crazy Busy - huge crowds came into
Boylston Street to show support for the City & Businesses

BOSTON
STRONG

Aye Seb for sure - it's kind of weird in so far as it has not rained a drop on the
memorial that was setup by people since that terrible day .... most unusual for
around here at this time of year in fact. !

Boston started it all as I remember - something about taxing tea ??
That was an expensive "cuppa" for the Crown !!
Good to see the city is as tough now as it was then.

You can't keep good people down.

Talking about rain and such things - I've been to the battlefield at Isandlwana in N Zulu land where the Brits were slaughtered by the Zulus.

I've never heard a bird sing on that battlefield. It's eerily quiet.
