Boston to Woodbury

We left Boston after a bit of rain through the night and headed to where the awful Boston Marathon bombing took place in April  2013. No landmarks or plaques we could see at all.
Then guess what, off to a super golf store on the other side of Boston where we struck pay dirt! We bought a few things in there, and the manager then gave us 6 free tickets and parking into the Deutsche Bank FedEx Cup Playoffs! Well do we go or don't we? Yes, we do!!
We got there to see Jason Day finish -3 and we were right where his drive landed and called out that we were from Brisbane (obviously after he'd taken his shot)  and he acknowledged us - yippee! we followed up to the green saw him drop a shot - boohoo - then went and watched Ricky Fowler and then John Sendon and also had to let him know we played at Keperra. He was happy to know that and gave us a wave and a smile. We had a great few hours there, was a great day, weather wise as well, then headed to our accom at Woodbury Conneticut for the night.
