Last Sunday, the weather was perfect – sunny and 70 (which is rare in late Oct). So we headed to Charlestown. Even though we have lived in the area for eight years, we never had a chance to go there. This seems to be the year when I’m knocking off quite a few things on [...]

It was a beautiful weekend here in the Northeast. Sunny and low 60s. Here in Central Massachusetts, the colors have turned in pockets, and I think the coming weekend will be more colorful than last. We hiked up Mt Wachusett after many months, on the usual Pine Hill trail. This is the shortest but it [...]
