#canitellyou there’s nothing common about Boston. I spent the morning meandering around Beacon Hill; taking photos of the lovely facades and store fronts when I chanced upon the most photographed street in the city. Fortunately, a kind stranger indulged me for some photos. I know, I’m shameless. / 😉🚶🏻‍♀️🏘 . . . #acornstreetboston #beaconhillboston #colonialboston #visitboston🇺🇸 #rafetotengco #rafetravelstoboston #charmingboston #bostonmassachusetts #weekendinboston #bostonweekend #myeyehastotravel #nothingcommonaboutboston www.rafe.com (at Acorn Street) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgEkaPRu6FI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#selfiesunday in my @bostoniansociety garb. I feel prettiest in period dress! Or I would if I could wear my hair down. #igersboston #oldstatehouse #colonialboston #18thcentury #1700sfashion #1767 #revolutionarycharacters #elizabethcummings #historicalinterpretation #livinghistory #18thcenturyfashion #selfie #me

I love that going to Edes & Gill, a recreated Revolutionary-era print shop next to the @oldnorth1723, is part of the training for my new job! Here the printer - who sets all the type by hand - shows a copy of the Declaration of Independence. This year they plan to start printing copies of the Constitution! We need them now more than ever. #constitution #americanhistory #edesandgill #oldnorthchurch #boston #bostonhistory #declarationofindependence #igersboston #massachusetts #massachusettshistory #printingpress #printing #historicalinterpretation #historicalinterpreter #revolutionarywar #colonial #colonialboston #colonialamerica #1776
