Marchel, Great post.  I have to ask now, how did you do your slide show?  Share your knowledge please.

Marchel,
Awesome post and great pictures, what is the little widget to change or scroll the pictures?  that's good because it does not have any name on it :)

Great pictures.  Remember the government works for us.  When they forget that we throw them out.

Marchel, great pictures!  I would love to go back there and do just what you did, visit all that historic sights.  I too am pleased with todays results, I agree with the idea of checks and balances.  One party should not have full, unchecked control of the Federal Government.

Now you know you got to write a blog about what you use to swap images......

Marchel - For a special election with only one item on the ballot, the turnout was amazing. Nice photos.

Marchel, there are so many cool places to go in Boston. I am hoping to get back up there, my family is from the Boston area and I lived there as a child. I have a list of places I want to visit with my camera of course!

Marchel,

I really enjoyed this post.  We have never been to Boston, and my wife tells me that it will be  long weekend or even a week's vacation destination for us this year.  Your photos make me anticipate it even more!

I don't mind if one party has a majority as long as they are not turning this country into communism with socialistic agendas rammed down our throats! This is suppose to be America!

Marchel - I too enjoyed the slideshow - what is your secret? I won't tell anyone - I promise -

Good Morning Marchel...Enjoyed your photo dedication to the people of Massachusetts...Thanks, Cherise

Marchel

What a great slide show of history; I must have watched the slide show 20 times. Very interesting.

Great pics. Good way to start the morning especially after last night.

HI TO ALL,  I am off to exercise class and probably won't get back to AR until this evening.  I will tell you how I made the slide show though.  The credit goes to Myrl Jeffcoat and she made an Animation tutorial.  You are going to need the program Animation Paint shop. You are also going to need to be able to upload the GIF file you make to a website.  That was where I got stuck.  You can't just go and grab the GIF as a picture or it won't work.  I love the nice clean slide show that it makes. 

Hi Marchel - Great photos! Boston is one of the places I have always wanted to visit - in no small part because of the history.

Marchel, Boston is one of my favorite cities.  I used to go every single year and this post just made me miss it.  Definitely a road trip when it gets warmer!!

Beautiful pictures, I've been to Boston and always wanted to run the marathon there but I have never been able to qualify...even at my advanced age ;-)

Marchel, beautiful result in Mass. and beautiful pictures!  Thanks for sharing them.

Marchel  We loved it the several years we lived in the Boston area - the history rivals or equals ours in Virginia

BOB, I hope you had a chance to visit Myrl's post today.  I have been excited all day.  I feel like MAYBE we dodged a bullet.

RAY, I had the same response as you the first time I saw these in one of Myrle's post.  I questioned her on it and she wrote a tutorial. Here it is Animation tutorial

ELITE HOMES, I love to see it when the people speak.  WOW did they SPEAK!!

TONY, It seems like it has been a long time since I had something in politics to be pleased about.  I have been smiling all day long.

LOREENA, I hope you had a chance to visit Myrle's tutorial.  If not here it is Animation tutorial

Marchel the people did speak yesterday.

By the way Boston has some of the worst drivers in the country, I feel like I am putting my life on the line every time I drive there ......... LOL

JUDY, WOO HOO MA!!  We appreciate your state!!

ANDREA, One day was not enough!  I wish we had more time!  There is so much history there and we just enjoyed the heck out of our day!

MIKE, You need more than a day; a long weekend would be perfect!  We did the whole tourist thing and took the trolley where you got on and got off.  It was perfect!  When we ran out of walking time we just rode the trolley. 

NICHOLAS, The one side has been acting like a kid in a candy jar.  Well they got caught with their hand in the jar. Here Myrl's Animation tutorial

DEBI, I have to admit Boston was one of those places on my bucket list.  I'm glad we took the extra day to visit.

CAROLE, I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED visiting Boston.  My husband for the most part does not care for crowded places but he enjoyed our day there also.  It was a busy day as they had a cruise ship in that day.

RUSSELL, I have a friend that is running the San Diego marathon.  I can't even imagine!!  I would love to go back sometime when we have more time.

YOLANDA, Thank you and the results were beautiful also!

KAREN, I also LOVED, LOVED, LOVED visiting DC.  We have been twice and I would love to come again someday. 

GEORGE, May I agree with you on Boston drivers.  We took off from Rhode Island thinking we were allowing plenty of time.  Oh my their traffic was worse than ours and I was not impressed with the drivers either. 

Marchel

Terrific photos .. I would love to visit there. And I too am happy about the election!

Marchel,  Boston was the start of the American Revolution through the tea party revolt.  Mass held true to their history on Tuesday. 

Wonderful photos.  Not sure I could figure out how to do it.

TREY, I think we may have dodged the bullet.  I say maybe as our President is so out of tune he is still blaming Bush.

BONNIE,  When we were there we looked at each other and said how could this state have become so liberal.  I was wrong they came through when they needed to with a second tea party!!

Marchel - I have never been to Boston, but have it, Cape Cod, and Salem on my Bucket List. . . Perhaps next year!  Your photos are magnificent!

Wonderful pictures, Marchel...and I loved the presentation. Thanks for sharing your how-to's!! 

I have never been to Boston or Washington DC. I would love to do BOTH now that the kids are older and could appreciate the history more!!  Enjoy your Sunday!

Marchel...great photos of Boston...I love to visit this city too.  I was so happy with the voting results as well.

I love Boston.  Great photos Marchel!

Hi Marchel!  It's a victorious experience to celebrate when your candidate wins isn't it?   Your pictures are beautiful!  Enjoy the triumph!

MYRL, Boston was on my bucket list also.  It was a VERY COOL day but a long weekend would have been better!

SONJA, We waited for our children to be older to take them to DC and I'm so glad we did.  They will always remember it!!  Our daughter made it to Boston before us.  I guess our son will have to do it on his own (lol).

REBECCA, I feel like we dodged a bullet. 

DEBRA, This was my first time to Boston but I loved it.

DIANE, When we were there in September if you had told me the story that was going to unfold I would have told you that you were NUTS. I remember looking over at my husband and saying "how did this city get so liberal".  I guess I was wrong; this was a second tea party. 

Marchel - I'm originally from Dorchester MA. I've been back a few times to visit my dad. Its a beautiful place and a ton of history, as you mentioned. Love the pictures.

Marchel,
thanks for the answer, keep the good work :)

Hello Marchel and I am so sorry I missed this post, well written and the photographs are wonderful. I hope it's not to late to feature this post at my favorite traveling group ..............

MY VACATIONS AT ACTIVERAIN

VB ;o)

The nike air Mariah is a very special sneaker. It’s one of the classic Nike runners. Many everyday runners hold the Nike Air Mariah close to their hearts. Nike always seems to do a great job with the Air Mariah. The design, colorways and construction always seems to be perfect. Well Nike does it once again as they pull out another great colorway of the Nike Air Mariah. This latest Nike Air Mariah comes in a Charcoal/Pink/White colorway. Charcoal covers the top half of the sneaker, such as the Nike swoosh, nike shoes laces, tongue, toe and the inner lining. Head turning pink accents appear on the tongue tag, heel, swoosh border, part of the midsole and the entire outsole. The sneaker construction is definitely unique. Nylon, suede and smooth leather are just some of the materials responsible for making this Nike Air Mariah. This isn’t officially a Womens sneaker, but it sure looks like one. This Charcoal/Pink/White colorway of the nike air max Mariah is available now at Finishline.Waiting air max 2011 .
