Off to Boston and Iceland

Quite a travel day… up at three am and out the door at four. Traffic jam on I-26 to the airport only added to the excitement! Navigating the Boston transit system to arrive at my son Alex’s place at 11. Pleasantly surprised to see my nephew Tom was still here, who I had not seen in awhile.

After lunch, I left the remote workers to work and set off walking through the series of greenways and parks they call the Emerald Necklace. Destination was the home of Frederick Law Olmsted, the landscape architect who created them as well as Central Park and hundreds of other iconic green spaces in America. Unfortunately, the home and visitor center was closed. Ended up talking to the maintenance man who knew a good bit about him. It was one of the first warm sunny days here, and people were out in droves enjoying it.

Later on, we met Alex’s partner Jess next to Fenway Park at the Cheeky Monkey brewery for dinner. A good day seeing the softer side of Boston!
