July 25 -Niagara Falls to Boston

Friday, July 25, 2008

It was an early morning rise with a 5am departure from Niagara Falls. Fifteen miles down the road our pickup rider realized she left her passport in her hotel room, so she and Chase returned to retrieve it while the core group headed toward customs to reenter the US. The caught up as we headed to Boston, meeting up with our Buffalo Soldier escorts at a rest stop just outside the city. As we reached city limits, the escort was taken over by the State Police who provided a siren/lights escort through rush-hour traffic. As we crossed the bridge with traffic stopped on each side of our group, it brought a stream of tears each of the divas to experience such a show of support and solidarity.
