I'm writing today from beautiful Hingham, Massachusetts - incorporated in 1635 and full of History and Pride. Hingham is also full of the very rich. Dads take the water shuttle downtown to their high paying financial district careers and Moms here do not work unless they own a hat shop or boutique selling sweet little Lilly Pulitzer items over in Hingham Square. Moms are very thin and carry Vera Bradley bags and cups of cappucino. Homes are not found for less than 600K. Ian and Lauren's house (where we are staying) is just gorgeous. It was built in 1865. They paid only 595K and they drive a Ford wagon - not a volvo - so they only fit in about 95%.
I spied this little treasure in Hingham Square (at the aforementioned Lilly Pulitzer shop) and I think I might treat myself to an early VDay gift - and let Peter off the hook.
World's end is in Hing ham. It's bea-u-ti-ful. jen--check it out this weekend. Well, it would be better if it was warm. but, the little one might like running around there.
