Happy #FlowerFriday from our gardens where the lavender (and the pollinators) are still going strong! Making us wonder, as this is the 252nd anniversary of Paul Revere and Rachel Walker’s wedding, did she carry a bouquet, and did it include lavender??

Close up view of thin silvery gray Lavender plant stems topped with clusters of tight, purple blossoms, one of which is being visited by a bumble bee.

Another #WalksOnWednesday in October? Must be another “close to home” pic to share! 😆 Many people are surprised to learn that October is one of our busiest months - comparable to June and August in some years!

Kind of a gray day but we’re always happy to see this view. Turns out Fall is also a busy season for us, so not a very long stroll for #WalksOnWednesday this week… maybe next week!
Stretch of an urban street lined with stone pavers and a brick lined sidewalk. In the middle a brick wall opens to reveal a gray wooden booth like structure. On the right is a two story gray clapboarded 17th century house and on the left is a long brick structure mostly out of the frame. A few people mill about on the sidewalk.

Background is a sepia toned image of an engraving made in the 18th century with the largest legible word being Brother in script near the top. Overlaid on that is a blue box with gold writing which says: Within the Compass of Good Citizens: Paul Revere's Masonic Journey" and then the date in white October 16, 6 PM and SRMML. org at the bottom.

On this day in 1940, Boston’s Paul Revere statue was unveiled!

Around 8,000 people gathered to watch the big reveal, including the statue’s sculptor, 79-year-old Cyrus Dallin. He had waited 55 years since a committee had first selected his design to see the statue displayed.

Taking an indoor #WalksOnWednesday today to feature a very rare Paul Revere letter, currently on loan to us from Bruce R. Bartlett and only on display in our Visitor Center this month! Revere wrote it to his son Joseph Warren Revere in June of 1810. Come see it if you can!
Close up image of Paul Revere's signature at the bottom of a letter written in cursive in now brownish ink. An 18th century handwritten letter in brown ink, written in cursive on off white paper. A shelf in an exhibit case with a letter on the right side and wooden painted fish weathervane in the shape of a cod on the right.
