Eunice’s mother asked her why she was going to meet a “perfect stranger.”
Eunice answered that I wasn’t a stranger, and I added that I’m not perfect either. We had so much fun getting better acquainted. She picked me up at the Kennedy Presidential Library where Manny and I spent a couple of wonderful hours browsing at our own rate through the exhibits.

Boy did Mom make me watch a lot of movies in there!
From there we dropped her boyfriend off at a park where he could search for hidden treasures. He found a cross.
I threw the stick for JT.

That’s what I’m talking about!
Manny tried to ride her, but JT thought he was her toy.

Yeah, put him down here. (hehe)
She didn’t bite Manny, but it was clear that she would rather have Eunice throw him so she could play fetch than have him ride on her back.

Really, he’s not a toy? What good is he then?
JT finally got a little disgusted at having to pretend to be friends with Manny, but don’t tell Manny that. He was a little amazed that someone didn’t immediately think he was better than opening day of clam season in Boston.

Come ON, Mom. Do I have to be nice to this bear?
We had a wonderful lunch at Chili’s near Braintree, MA, then picked Ron back up at the park by the JFK Library.
She suggested that I start my Freedom Trail hike at the USS Constitution, so after some parting pictures, we went our separate ways. Thank you Eunice for such a wonderful adventure. It was a great treasure meeting my second blogger friend in person. 🙂 See you in November! 🙂
What a great meet-up for both you and Manny, although he does sound a little ungrateful. JT is gorgeous, and I’m sure she would have loved to play with Manny, given half a chance. 😀

You are absolutely right, but JT much preferred me to throw her stick. She was a dream. Manny is a bit spoiled. 🙂 hmmm 🙂

I am glad my surgery went well enough to head out to meet you Marsha xo you will go home with many fond memories of my beautiful city and New England as well which I am so happy about. Now you can personally vouch for how cool we all are 🙂
Enjoy the rest of your time here and safe travels for both you and Manny lol JT is used to woman giving her pretty stuffed animals so not knowing Manny she thought she was once again being GIFTED 🙂
