You know how when you don’t have something you need a friend loans it to you? My sister loaned me her cat for the weekend. It’s not that I *need* a cat. It’s more than I needed some entertainment. See I haven’t set up cable or Internet at my new apartment and well …. Those…
I have a thing for stonewalls. I seriously love them. I most certainly never appreciated the stone walls that surrounded our childhood house. I got the historic beauty part, but the labor factor… that’s the incredible part. Now, that I’ve seen people build stone walls I’m blown away when I try and think about laborers…
Live updates aren’t just for Yosemite 🙂 I’m smack in the middle of a run by moon light …. And it’s awesome. I’m jamming out to the new Kelly Clarkson and smelling the ocean. The beach is wet because the tide is going out. When you run over the wet sand there is like this…
Sometimes a little walk is better than a long walk. I was going to go to Norris River Reservation yesterday afternoon but decided to save that for today. So at the last minute, I went to the “Driftway” part of Scituate. I have no idea how it got that name but that’s just what it’s…
I’ve got a few more days left of vacation and so I’m spending them outside as much as possible. After my walk to the beach this morning, there was this scattering of leaves in the corner of the yard. My parents don’t have many trees that shed their leaves so it was a rare opportunity…
Travel days aren’t really super exciting, but I feel like they are a great opportunity to remind myself that patience is a virtue and being nice pays off. I wouldn’t say that patience has always been a characteristic I exhibit, but I have learned that you only move as quickly as the masses in travel……
As a Bostonian, I think nothing of any real type of precipitation. We get rain, we get snow. Hail even shows up from time to time. So, when we woke up to rain this morning pelting the leaves of the palm tree…. I wasn’t really affected. But, apparently people in LA are terribly confused by…
Don’t be too disappointed in me. I didn’t take a lot of pictures on Saturday. I’m sorry but I was busy enjoying the sun and catching up with friends. The day was primarily filled with walking around Santa Monica and doing very leisurely things, but I did start the day by eating two chocolate…
I can’t even remember what life was like traveling pre-smartphones. It’s really an incredible convenience. For example, after I used my iPhone to navigate to SF today I not only found the nearest BART station, but I also bought my plane ticket to LAX and reserved my rental car. In probably less than 5 minutes.…
