#TravelTuesday Pic: Where Is Jack Kerouac’s Grave?

Iconic Beat Generation author Jack Kerouac is buried in which Massachusetts city? The Boston Globe

Iconic Beat Generation author Jack Kerouac, who died in 1969 at the age of 47, is buried in Massachusetts. His gravesite received a makeover this fall when a local monument company installed a memorial stone that reads “The Road is Life,’’ taken from his best-known book, “On the Road.’’ Before that, his grave was marked by a flat plaque that was more difficult to find.

You’d have to go to which Massachusetts city to visit it? It’s the city where he was born and raised.

Check back with us tomorrow and we’ll reveal the answer.
