I had not even considered that plans were already underway for the 2020 celebration, but I'm glad they are. That's very interesting about the man on your tour. I hope I am still going out of my way to experience and interact with history when I'm in my 70's.

It is undergoing major, unplanned repairs and hopes to be back in its spot in Plymouth, Massachusetts harbor soon for the summer tourist season. Without these repairs it will not last until 2020. One of the other members of my tour was Joe Meany. He was a 17 year old cabin boy during the 1957 voyage from England to Massachusetts. I spotted him in your film above. He is still spry, and enjoyed the tour. Heather Wilkinson Rojohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17704949156266722016noreply@blogger.com
