We took a ride down Rte. 44 last Sunday to Plymouth, MA. It's almost 1 direct line from my home and really not very far. We went out mostly to take pictures. It amazes me that after 14 generations I live so few miles from where my ancestors on the Mayflower landed. This is a replica of the original Mayflower which was destroyed in a storm years ago. It's an amazing boat, but not when you think about the amount of people that had to live on it for such a long time and distance.
