Boston


I have a conference in Boston in late April, I recently booked travel ($152 round trip for air from DC to Boston - a great price.)  I have only been in Boston once before.  I am looking forward to going back.  I am looking forward to finding a lobster, maybe not quite as big as the one above, but definitely worth the work.  When I was a teenager my grandmother took the family out to dinner for my birthday (also her anniversary and my grandfather's birthday.) I ordered a lobster and as I was setting there cracking the shells and sucking out the meat, my father remarked, "at least they butchered my steak before they brought it to me!"

  4. I'm envious. Jerry and I lived (and met) there in the early '80s. Haven't been there in more than 10 years!

  5. Awful drivers; I got a panic attack on the Boston freeway.
