Amanda in front of an old home in Concord center. I don't know what this tree looks like right now but, as you can see, a couple of weeks ago it was dressed in golden splendor...

There's a very old cemetery between this old colonial home and the church to the left of it...

From this angle you can see the church and the cemetery while the house peeks out from behind the trees.

There are many signs and markers to stop and read as you stroll around Concord...

Adorable shops and eateries are everywhere...

This photo was taken inside of Nesting on Main, a gorgeous shop that Cafe Chatelaine has posted about several times...
I loved everything about this window display.... the horse lamp, the raffia pumpkins, the turkey fabric covering the table....


This home is actually a bit outside of Concord Center... Tomorrow I'm going to show you where Louisa May Alcott wrote Little Women, and this sweet little cottage is located right across the street so I couldn't resist snapping a picture of it... Isn't it adorable?
Okay, I promised to share what I bought! Each year I decorate the small Christmas tree in our dining room window with bird ornaments, so......

...when Mr. Blue Jay heard Amanda and I talking about how great he'd look on the tree, he asked if he could please come home with us...

...and since he's kind of sweet on Ms. Bluebird (who's sporting a bit of a duck bill rather than a beak!!), he asked if she could come home with us, too... How could I say no? They'll be perfect for our bird tree, and they'll always remind me of the wonderful little day trip Amanda and I took to historic Concord, MA!
See you tomorrow when I'll show you the house where Louisa May Alcott wrote Little Women...

COMMENT UPDATE: Hey, hipchick! We sure did visit Authors Ridge at Sleepy Hollow Cemetery! Loved it! We'd taken the girls there years & years ago when they were in elementary school so we were due for another visit!! Here's my October 29th post about it: Sleepy Hollow
