Description
While on a school trip with my son's fifth grade class to Boston, a friend of his could not wait to show me the headstone of the all famous Mother Goose. I was fascinated to be standing at the headstone of the person who wrote some of my all time favorite nursery rhymes! After reading a myriad of articles about Mary Goose and her history, I found the facts to be so jumbled and inaccurate, that I washed my hand of it! I decided to focus more on the best way to present this photograph. It was a lovely spring day in Boston and I thoroughly enjoyed spending time in the Old Granary Burial Ground where you will also find the head stone of Paul Revere!

Great shot Liz! (...you've inspired me to try to find this grave...)
Elizabeth Dow replied:
Thank you Mike! If you go, it is in the back right if you are looking in from the street side. Have fun!
