Blue Heron

There is plenty of city nature to be had if you know where to look. My wanders yesterday took me to an area called the Fens. It's right in the city n yet I was able to see this:


I believe it is a Blue Heron

Pretty neat if you ask me.

Spy Pond

Last night Jay and I enjoyed an evening stroll down a tree lined bike path to Spy Pond. It's nice to be able to find spots like this while still being in the city. The specks of black you can barely see on the water were ducks.

We started our walk a bit on the late side last night n ran out of light. I have a feeling a sunset would be delightful to enjoy there so it's been put high on the to do list.

Phone app

Been having a hard time blogging when I get home at night so I am trying out this new fancy iPhone app that will let me post from my phone on the go. Hopefully it will help keep me up to date.

View from the ICA

Enjoyed* lunch at Temazcal in Boston's new and improved waterfront followed by a stroll to the ICA



The building was built over the water and has an observation walkway that has all glass windows for a great view.





*Enjoyed at the time however for the rest of the day I had guacamole flavored burps.
