The Sox are home but they are playing the Yankees; Thats about $1200 per ticket. I recommend going to see Blue Man Group. Heck of a lot less expensive.
Car museum in Brookline (near Boston) Museum of Science Omnitheatre @ Museum of Science USS Constitution in Charlestown Walk around Fanueil Hall (and go to the Comedy Connection at night) Museum of Fine Arts Walk on the Charles River Duck Tour (goes from the Prudential Building I think) Walk around the North End and eat Pastries and Pastas The Improv in the North End Swan Boats on the Boston Common Walk the Freedom Trail Boston Aquarium How long ya gonna be around for? Will you have mobility (i.e. rental car)? Or are you just staying in Boston Proper? -Bob Cunningham
for the weekend gonna be there friday evening , leaving monday morning around 7 I think I will have a rental car. havent booked a hotel yet. would like to stay close to the center of things but dont want to spend a rear quarter panel a night. all we need is a hot shower and a coffee pot in the room.!

You could go to the courthouse and watch lesbians get married. :shock: Myself, I'd go see the U.S.S. Constitution.
If you like Lobster you'll have an easy time finding it. I was there a few years back for an arbitration hearing and I think I ate lobster 6 times in 3 days. I also brought two of the little suckers home with me, first class to Denver and a big pot of water :beer Of course I let the kids play with them for a while before I cooked em! :Brow: The kids :ball: and the look from the wife uzzled:
We love lobster and will definately try and get our fill. and probably get some back to Illinois too!
Larry, give me a call when your in town.....at the least you can check out our cars....and see a burnout or two.....781 856 1760
we have a new multi-billion dollar tunnel you can drive through. well thats if it ain't flooded out from all the cracks at the time of your visit.
Go to Abe and Louie's for dinner. Bring a credit card they take, or plenty of cash. It's a nice place with great service and even better food. Right by the Pru (Prudential Center). Get the seafood tower if you're into that stuff. I ate so many raw oysters, clams cassino, oysters rockefeller, jumbo shrimp, and so much lobster I could barely eat my steak- a filet mignon stuffed with oysters :grin: Great scotch selection too, and I'm told (wine's not my thing) that they have a wonderful wine selection. When you order a Coke it's a glass bottle of Coke, too- nice touch But it ain't cheap. 28-35 bucks for an entree. Worth every penny http://www.bbrginc.com/al/1.html
Museum of Fine Arts You can take your wife to the Museum of Fine Arts and surprise surprise there's a car show there! :laugh: :laugh: Speed, Style, and Beauty: Cars from the Ralph Lauren Collection Gund Gallery: Through July 3, 2005 oops, it will be closed. Damn. Still an extraordinary museum.
