Thoughts On An East Coast Trek

• That snow stuff falling from the sky? I saw it, at the airport layover in Cleveland.......... CoooooooL
  
• Did you know the Airport TSA can open your checked bag, search it, drop a "sorry" note in it, put a tie wrap on it, and send it on it's way? I didn't, I do now....
  
• Strange feeling to notice a layer of ice on the leading edge of the plane's wing while sitting at the Cleveland gate. Goodie Drawer award to the guy who de-iced us.
  
• New England streets go up, down, in, out, diagonal, and all around, changing street names at whim. Driving's not a task, it's an adventure.
  
• Have you ever noticed, the first time you meet someone, often, they don't look like you imagined they did over the telephone? Me too.
  
• I Loved hearing that Eastern Accent again. Nobody says Sure, they say Show-aa. Don't laugh, after a week, I was saying it too.
  
• I got to wear my Winter Heavy Leather Bomber Jacket. Bought it 3 years ago, third occasion I've worn it.
  
• The Radisson was ok, but the Courtyard in Woburn was 15-20min North of Downtown, 1.5 years old, and cheaper. A nice place to stay for vacation in Boston
  
• Those stories about Boston Traffic downtown? Much Much better since they opened the tunnel. So I hear. Looked ok every time to me.
  
• The John F Kennedy Library and Museum near the UMass college campus was awesome. If you get to Boston, it's not to be missed......
  
• It was nice to see the family. My Cousin and her Husband live just North of Boston, and my Sis and Aunt Drove in from NY State.
  
• The family is also just as fun as I remember. I think we may be banned from one club downtown, for Loud and/or Obnoxious behavior......... YES!
  
• Dorothy (and toto too) had it right. No matter how nice a vacation place may be..... There's no place like home.
