Adams National Park at Quincy MA?

 My brother, Don and I went to see the Adams National Park in Quincy MA. It is an amazing place filled with history. I took some photos of what we saw. Some of the photos are posted below.

I don't know if this was part of the park but I thought it was really neat looking and included it with the other photos. 

This is the Peace Field house. The stone library is located to the left of this house. 

Here is a cemetary located in the downtown area of Quincy.

Here is a statue of John Adams (John Quincy Adams?) in the downtown area. It is not far from Abigail Adams nearby. 

Each of these pillars are made from one piece of granite. Usually they are made in parts but these are like the monoliths in Egypt in that it is one piece instead of being parts being stacked. 

This is the church that has two generation of Adams buried in the basement in a really nice crypt. They have tours of the church most of the year (call to see if they are open before you go). 

This a statue of Abigail Adams that is in the downtown area.

This was in the gift area of the visitor center. They have some really nice items that are for sale. They have some nice cups and tea items as well has books and other souvenirs. 

I have a separate post of the stone library. The above is not only of the park but also parts of downtown Quincy MA.
