Thanks David. I was thinking it was possibly the USCG Eagle. You must have been there in Boston for a special event, or special time. Nice photos - both of USS Constitution and the Eagle. JimR

JimR, thanks again for your comments. I don't know if there were something special going on or not. Those photos were taken on 24 Jul 2011. A cousin from Lancaster and I toured the city following my choir cruise.
