It looks like the area is covered by the Mode C requirement, so no ultralights. The link below is an online sectional that you can zoom in and out to see the area.

I am sure this is not what you want to hear, however....
As you are opposed to paying for some "ground instruction",
I see a hefty fine imposed by the faa in your future.
I would bring up the sectional and Terminal Area Charts
to answer your question, however my going rate is $35 hr
for ground, and $55 hr for primary flight instruction, $75 hr for advanced instruction.
If I were to do this pro bono (as I do here on a daily basis)
I just might be a unwilling participant of a airspace incursion.
I cannot emphasize enough, see a flight instructor, buy him/her lunch for a 30 minute review of your local airspace.
Bos is no place to be messing around, if you enter controlled airspace, you WILL be intercepted, most likely detained and possible charged .
In this case, a ounce of prevention is worth much more
than a pound of cure
Do the right thing, I am sure the FAA would not be impressed were you to tell them "I got my flight planning info on Yahoo!Answers"

First, get a sectional. Second, chart your route. Then look at whether or not you'll be in Boston's Class B airspace. If so, you'll need to remain clear of it. I assume you are referrring to KLWM, Lawrence Municipal airport.
It looks like KLWM is in Class D airspace. But there are also hours attached, so I'd check in a AFD for that region, which will give you that information. I assume you are departing from KLWM. It looks like to me, the Class D airspace would go from ground to 2600 feet MSL. Which means, you'd have to have a transponder, two way communications, etc. that are required for operation in Class D airspace.
You might want to get with a CFI familiar with the area, get your charts and AFD, and take a little closer look, since I am not from the specifica area.
