Worcester Art Museum

We’ve had a long stretch of bad weekend weather, but yesterday Yen finally reached his limit of puttering around the house. We took ourselves to the Worcester Art Museum. It…

Rocky Woods

Another weekend, another property down in the Trustees Challenge. This time we headed down to Medfield and Rocky Woods. It’s a surprisingly big property given its location smack in the…

A Regular Sunday

I was driving home Saturday afternoon and saw a herd (flock?) of turkeys standing in someone’s yard. I thought, “I wish turkeys would hang out in my yard!” I really…

Tully Lake

I’m not ashamed to admit it: Saturday night I slept 13 hours. I went to bed at 9pm and woke up at 10:30am, confused beyond all belief. I had a…

Picnic at Moseley Woods

Saturday we got together for a picnic at Moseley Woods. Yes, it was cold. Yes, some moms had actually reserved the shelter for a wee people’s Halloween party. But we…

Mount Watatic

Continuing our exploration of the Wapack Trail, we tackled the very bottom this weekend, Mt. Watatic. I’m going to rank this one #2 out of the site (Ted’s Trail to…

Long Hill

I’m not going to waste a lot of time with words in this post. Yen and I have taken to driving out to Concord and walking the Battle Road for…

New England Aquarium

Last night we went to Corporate Night at the New England Aquarium. We hadn’t been there since the big core tank was redone, so we were excited to do this.…

Field Trip to the Public Garden

If it’s Spring, we’re going to the Public Garden – that’s just a fact. It happens every year, so you should be used to it by now. I confess I’ve…

In Which I Stand in Front of Many Trees

We couldn’t stand being inside another minute now that nice weather is upon us, so we grabbed keys and camera and headed into Boston. First stop was in Dorchester for…
