Well we had Breakfast with Midge and filled up the tank and she lead up out of Woburn. It was a great way to finish off a wonderful time in Boston with Midge.

We were 4 hours out of New York City. Well actually we are staying in an RV park just 2 train stops from New York City. We got in around 4 pm and showered and took off to see the city.


We took the ferry over to Manhattan island and we were dropped off right at the base of the new “Freedom” Tower. There are several memorials around the new tower and a museum. We toured the memorials but skipped the museum. It was feeding time. So we went up to Little Italy for Pizza. And as you may or may not know if you give Marty pizza hes gonna want Gelato. So we ate diner and desert and headed back across the Hudson via train and watched the fireworks sitting in front of our RV with neighbors ( Bill and Louise) and talked and watched the fireworks from Ellis Island and from Manhattan.

So its time for bed .. Yankees game and time to do wash tomorrow.


I love the photos that you added to this post! Midge is a SWEET HEART – and the kind of patriotic American that we need more of…
That one pic of Ben with the skyline behind him is precious. He looks so healthy, young and happy to be alive. 🙂
