hipster. doofus.
i spent the weekend exploring seattle. looking up at things, and apparently finding enough reflections of myself to become a small crowd.
most notably, i got to see orville peck at the local music festival. i’m recently obsessed with this person and am having a little bit of a country music moment.
i wouldn’t walk around in a cowboy hat or boots or anything. i would not lasso a bull. there are limits.
but i would be best friends with orville peck.
just finished my week at work in boston and wanted to share a few shots i took along the way.
i met n in eastie and we pigged out at an italian restaurant overlooking the harbor. i’m counting calories right now because, yes, i’ve ballooned. naturally, i ordered the carbonara.
the calories were counted. they were not consulted.
the others are from wandering back from work to the hotel. really a fabulous week to be in boston, and a good excuse to take my time getting back.
not sure if you know this, but september and october in boston and on the cape are ++++++.
i’m back in boston working. i flew in yesterday, and this morning i went for a run.
i’ll typically leave the hotel and run through the common, onto the esplanade, and finally back down the commonwealth avenue mall. today they had the great elephant migration on display, and it was really fabulous.
the mall ends at the public garden, which is so wonderful. i have thousands of pictures of the george washington statue, so today i gave him the morning off and took some pictures of the weeping willows and the pond instead.
i was listening to “the fool” by queen herby while i ran by. “do the dance, take a chance, start a garden…” has really been sticking with me.
maybe that’s the whole thing: get outside, notice something new, and grow some plants.
