Breed's Hill

The battle of Bunker Hill apparently was fought on Breed's Hill! We are learning a lot. That doesn't take away any that the monument for Bunker Hill is an obelisk that rises 294 steps into the sky (about half as high as the Washington Monument). For those brave enough th climb to the top, they are rewarded with a beautiful view of Charlestown and of the shipyard where Old Ironsides is in dry dock. Many are trying. We shall see if all suceed.

We have been blessed with perfect touring weather today so the visibility should be great up top.

After this we will be on the bus with plenty of time to let our legs recover. We follow Paul Revere's path to Concord and then to Lexington.
