The trip was wonderful. We saw so many things that I’m sure I’ve already forgotten some. We took trolley tours, walking tours, drove and walked all over Boston and Salem. I’ll have to tell you guys about later.
My birthday was on the 30th and I got to spend it on vacation. That’s the coolest.
When we got back from our trip, Jacob told me that my basement had flooded the day before – on my birthday. I guess Cornwall got a record amount of rain and I ended up with 9 inches of water in my basement. Thousands of people in this area were flooded. Apparently, some people’s basements got so much water that it was gushing out of their basement windows. So, all in all, I’m not doing too bad.
I lost a dryer and a fridge so far. This morning, I went down to clean out the fridge. You guys can’t even imagine the smell. I won’t try to describe it except to say that that’s what I imagine a decomposing body would smell like. I think I could shower 10 times and still feel like I have some “stuff” on me. It had to be done though!
Knitting night tonight. A welcome distraction!
I was going to attach pics but, I can’t because I can only upload pics that are smaller than 2 MBs. I took most of my pics at 8 MBs. Bummer! Let me try to find a few. They’re all of the last day and the drive home. None of the historical Boston. I’ll try to “crunch” some so that they’re smaller and I can post them at another time.
Looking forward to tonight.
