Hello from Boston

Greetings from Boston - West Roxbury burrough. We are enjoying a long weekend with our son, his wife and their 5 week old son. The leaves are nearing peak color here. Some trees have lost their leaves. It's kind of cool. We walked downtown Boston all afternoon and my face was cold. We had lunch at Top of the Hub in the Prudential Building and did some shopping in the center, which is connected by a walk way to Copley Square. You can see all of Boston from the restaurant - floor 52. You can see the harbor - there was a large cruise ship anchored there. President Obama was in town this afternoon and we could see the street closed off to the Westin where he stayed. I guess he spoke at MIT. Greg works downtown near where we walked. We walked to Boston Common and walked around the park. Boston is really not a large city, but driving is crazy. Parking is worse. I will have pictures once we get home.
