Just south of Duxbury (Marybeth's home town) is Plymouth.
We visited the replica of the Mayflower. Since all the Cornwall kids ARE Mayflower Mariners this was very special.

Of course the highlight of the day was seeing the (why is it so?) famous ROCK.
Plymouth bay and the ROCK
Plymouth museum (where Rachel was the Star by completing the museum treasure hunt for a prize. Hmm.. what was that special prize that you worked so hard to get Rach?)
The newly weds met us for a tour of quaint Duxbury then to the Zeller home to open the generous gifts (and the not so generous ones too - j.k. they were all nice.)
The REAL highlight of the day was being all together, including Jeffrey via a Christmas audio tape. We played the tape as we opened Jeff's Christmas gifts.
Then we said goodbye to the smiling couple. They were off to Acapulco and we were off on the drive to New York which meant crossing 4 states - in 4 hours - granted one was Rhode Island.
Love that smiling couple!!
ReplyDeleteDad, you know how to produce. I love your creativity and the time that you put into your posts. Thank you so much for so many great memories.
ReplyDeleteI just want to be the second person in this post to congratulate Rachel on her excellence and hard work at the museum. No matter what Katie says, I liked your prize.
ReplyDeleteThanks dad for providing these memories and for helping us remember them with this post. Bytheway, next time Dallin and I see you we would like to get our teeth so we can use them for fun in the near future. Jeffers is one of a kind.
ReplyDeleteI have put all of the teeth in the Halloween box and anytime anyone would like theirs - or check out more than one pair - just let me know. Katie - we'll put a couple sets in the "TO GO TO KATIE" pile.
ReplyDeleteA FLIPPIN' POSTCARD (DAGGNABBIT?!!) but i'm not bitter.
