Beautiful day in Winthrop MA

I took this picture of Winthrop MA while landing at Logan International Airport in Boston Sunday. Located just east of the airport Winthrop a beautiful oceanside community situated at the entrance to one of the most beautiful harbors in New England! Winthrop sits on a peninsula of 1.6 square miles and boast some of the most spectacular views on the East Coast. On one side we have a panoramic view of the outer harbor and on the other we have the Boston Skyline and the inner harbor silhouetted against the sky. Settled in 1630, Winthrop is one of the oldest communities in the country. It was named for John Winthrop; a governor of Massachusetts and John’s son Deane Winthrop’s home, built in 1637 is now an historic site and museum.
