I went on a trip to Boston (Harvard) for the annual J. Reuben Clark Law Society meeting in February. It was a lot of fun to see the sites and SOME of the speakers were excellent! It was fun to see the historic sites and to see Harvard up close. I went with three other LDS law students from UNL. I got to hear and met Ken Starr, who was the special prosecutor of President Clinton during his perjury hearings and was the principal author of the California Supreme Court appellate brief that supported the amendment to California's constitution to uphold marriage as only between one man and one woman (which was successful)! Needless to say it was a pleasure to met him! Overall, Boston and the surrounding areas were beautiful.

Bunker Hill Memorial (291 steps to the top in a small spiral concrete staircase similar to a dungeon!!!!)
View from our hotel
Making a superb (make believe) speech at Harvard
Boston Temple (we drove around the neighborhood to find Mitt Romney, but were unsuccessful (he supposedly lives there)).
Old North Bridge (right by Concord green where the Revolutionary War broke out)
Fenway and the Green Monster behind me (field and stadium were under serious renovation)
We ate at Cheers (Bull and Finch) restaurant. Did not see Woody, Norm, or Carla though, maybe next time!!
