How nice Yogi!! I'm sure you'll enjoy it. I always wanted to see Boston but never made it.
Now I'm not the expert, but I know they have transportation from NYC to Boston. I found that so many cities/states are closer than you think to NYC . When we had a BB meet in Philly, I took bus from Philly to NYC. If I recall it was a couple hour ride.
I don't know what the distance would be, but perhaps you could take a day trip if it's not too far. The NYC area BBers can be of help there. Just saying, it might be possible to visit for a day and NOT stay over in NYC. Just a suggestion.
Anyway, have a wonderful time and post pics if you can. If I were anywhere near the area, I'd love to meet you.
