eh boston.

well i went to boston. honestly, i don't think enough time had passed since i was last there because it felt no different. Tom and I immediately started griping and putting on our worst accents. there we sat in the traffic we knew all too well cranky from the drive down scratching our heads over the latest detour. ah yes, we we're back...in boston. the huge upside of the horrendous traffic was that we got to listen to my all-time favorite radio guys, Toucher and Rich. these two made commuting in boston enjoyable to the point that i would sit in my car IN the driveway so as not to miss a minute of the hilarity before the next commercial break. adolfo and crash, i miss you boys also. chilli guy? where are you?

adolfo.

We ended up having a fantastic weekend thanks to our friend Christian for putting us up in his amazing place in Central Sq. across from Tom's old venue, The Middle East, and to our friend Beebs for providing constant entertainment. you guys are my unit and it had been too long since we've all been together.



Who knew pedicabs existed in boston? i've seen these guys in Austin, TX which is hardcore in the humidity down there, but in Boston? You barely come out alive crossing the street there, I can't imagine dragging a couple of excitable tourists behind you.

i wish i had a picture of the fried pumpkin raviolis and our burgers from The Publick House in Brookline. Really chill place to eat, read the Dig and enjoy some of the finest brews around. Watch our for the pretentious beer snobs though, they'll get you.

it's been real boston, but i think i'll keep my green mountains thanks.

Up Next!? Hmmm, what's on tap for this weekend? Birthday extravaganzas and Brookfield puppy playtime.

tune in.

off to boston.

hey! I'm disappearing for the weekend and headed off to my old stomping grounds, Boston. I'm looking forward to hanging with a few familiar faces, dining at some of my favorite places (The Publick House, Cafe Kiraz) and snapping off a few photos to bring back with me. There are so many places I wanted to shoot while I lived there, but somehow I never managed to find the time in all my six years living in the city. Maybe this three-day weekend is what I needed?
