Plymouth Mass today, way cool! The Rock.......


We headed the 20 miles or so over to the coast to Plymouth Mass, the site of the original landing of the Pilgrims in America in 1620. I had been here when I was 6 or 7 years old, and do remember my visit, even though it was 56 years ago!!!! What I remember most, is how small the monument was, as you can see in the photo above- It's tiny for sure. The rock itself bummed Bette out, she kept thinking it was a really big rock, but sadly, it's not much more than about 8 feet across and maybe 5 feet high. Oh well, it is what it is. It was a totally beautiful morning, nippy, but sunshiny for our visit. We got several usual goodies, 2 pins, postcards, a boat for the boat collection, and a sno globe for a special buddy.
Here's the actual rock below....
