Sisters in the Big City

The sisters headed into the big city to see what adventure awaited
My sister's grandchildren made pumpkins for her so she wouldn't be lonely on her trip. Jan took the pumpkins to Cheers bar/restaurant. Many people took pictures in front of the sign and at the door to Cheers. The place is small. We decided not to wait 25 minutes to get a seat for lunch.

Like many people in Boston he sported a beard and shirt 
to support the home town team. 
The Red Sox won the Word Series the night before. 
There was still a lot of celebrating going on.

People create beautiful gardens in very small spaces
roses - still blooming the end of October


Homes on Beacon Hill were creatively decorated for Halloween and trick or treat night. 
We enjoyed watching the children and their parents.

It's a beautiful area. The doorways to lower level apartments were built in a day when people were much shorter than we are now. 
This is a beautiful neighborhood.
