Historic sites along the Route

This weekend was a great adventure.I participated in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer.  I spent it walking 26 miles throughout some of Massachusetts historic cities and landmarks.
It is my 8th year and every time I see something new. They change the route to make it interesting for those of us who are return Walkers.
My favorite part of the walk was down Commonwealth Avenue, at mile 8.2.in the city of Boston. Nestled in the Back Bay area is built on a land fill that covers the area where the Atlantic tides once met the Charles River. The Mall is punctuated with statuary and memorials.
What caught my eye was the Boston Women's Memorial, with statues of Abigail Adams,
Lucy Stone, and Phillis Wheatley, sculpted by Meredith Bergmann. 2003.
