New England States

As you travel between New York and Boston, you see trees and other usual sights. Once in a while, if you are paying attention, you will see some real treasures, like the harbor that I photographed at the start of this set. This harbor is located along Interstate 95, and is one of the most picturesque sights along the journey. Then, when you get into Boston there is a world of sights just waiting to be had. What follows below is some of the pictures that I took on some recent trips to this great city. The one taken at night is especially nice because it shows the waves in the river next to the city.

Take some time and visit the harbor area and look at the buildings. The painting on the side of one of the buildings is easy to miss because you are trying to negotiate an intersection when you finally see it. Take time to look around. Sure, people will honk at you, but the effort is worth it. There is much to see in these areas.
