Off-Beat Freedom Trail trek with Ed Raymond

 



On the town. Twas the second annual Ed Raymond OffBeat Freedom Trail trek. Fort Independence on Castle Island (where Sgt. Edgar Allan Poe heard the tale that became The Cask of Amontillado) Foley’s on Berkeley (where the Boston Police Strike of 1919 was fomented), the Malcom X mural in the Station formerly known as Dudley, Roxbury puddingstone, Mission Church. Also playing records. And wrap up picking stones on the beach (with a geologist!) and sea food at Wollaston Beach with the friends and family.
