So on one hand I haven’t flown since like 1998 and we’re going to Philly from Manchester. We go to get coffee. Not even thinking I leave my bag at the terminal and within 5 minutes they have a dog on it. I’m like oh shit. Then they call me down to the office and give me a talk. But I just wasn’t thinking. It was like 6 am.

In p town they have a sign for the distance to Long Beach

Crow hill in Leominster state forest is a good one too.

One my professors neighbors had back pain the day after thanksgiving. He thought it might be a kidney infection it was pancreatic cancer and he was dead by New Years. Now that I’m on the second half of my 30’s I’m definitely more nervous about everything.

Trying to get on rt 2 east from the Leominster hospital area with everybody coming down the hill

If they’re doing the fall lights this year imo it’s not worth it. Get tickets for the winter light show it’s so pretty. Later on in December you could checkout Christmas on runway in Lancaster. They do Their whole house up with lasers/lights broadcast Music etc. it’s awesome but it’s been dumb packed every year and the show gets shorter the longer the line.

I listen to it for a laugh on my commute sometimes but you get the preachers talking about abortion etc sometimes and that’s a bit much.

Maine is up there too. It’s bad enough a few of the radio stations are Christian rock now.

It’s cool seeing the old pictures of the bridge and standing up where it started on the hill. Girl friends dad has stories about how they would try to climb the dam or cross the dam on the face of it.

I live across the dam from this and I’m from Lancaster. Still have never been in there.

Growing up in central mass there was a pheasant farm near my grandmothers house in Ayer. My dad would walk there all the time then they built a bunch of colonials next door and the people complained until it closed.
