Pathological Techno Fetishist with Social Deficit




North America » United States » Massachusetts » Boston September 19th 2010

We decided to attempt to conquer Boston and its environs in a single day, something that took the colonials a hell of a lot longer to do. Boston's rich in history, and old cemeteries, and we got to experience a whole lot of it. We began with downtown Boston. We began by driving to Boston Common and wandering around the park there. There were tons of plaques and statutes commemorating everything all over the place. We wandered the streets around the Common by the Massachusetts State House, etc. Was really crazy. We eventually found ourselves near Faneuil Hall. We didn't want to walk back, so we got a taxi to take us uphill to the Common again. Once there we wandered the old cemetery there, and went back to our chariot for the next stop. From ... read more

Pennsylvania We woke up and had a quick Holiday Inn Express breakfast. Finally, we were on the road. Today we planned to hit more states than any other point in our trip, and it would prove to be one of the longer days. Including Pennsylvania and our destination state of Massachusetts, we would be in 8 different states today. I fixed up a relatively meandering route to help us hit states (like Delaware) we would probably never really have another chance/reason to see. Maryland It wasn't long before we hit Maryland. We stopped at a truck stop here and Heather was able to find tons of keychains, mostly for Atlantic Seaboard states, but a few from New England. Delaware Hi. We're in Delaware. Seriously, just kinda drove through. New Jersey Instead of taking I-95 through Philly, ... read more

I've never done a proper visit of New England, so we decided to get down to brass tacks and planned one doozy of a trip! We began in Harrisburg, PA, mainly for its proximity to Hershey and the corresponding Hershey's Chocolate World. A site never to be missed, we wanted to pay homage to the wonderful chocolatier and worship at their altar. Flying into Harrisburg was wonderful. We approached the runway from the north, so we didn't get a great view of 3 Mile Island like I was hoping for, which is just south of the airport. But the view was still magnificent of downtown Harrisburg and the Susquehanna River. Being the general science geek I am, especially with nuclear stuff, I insisted we drive down to a view of 3 Mile Island's reactors and cooling ... read more
