a dream aloud

Memorial Day Weekend!

I had such a great weekend!  My best friend Lindsay came to visit Boston and I had a lot planned for us:  boston harbor cruise/island adventure, pool party, salem bars, marblehead to rockport on our boat, maddie's sail loft and lobster dinner.  I am exhausted - but it was well worth it!

makes me wanna dance

Lobstahhs

My family has a house on the harbor in Marblehead; so naturally we are into seafood.  We have a residential lobstering license to own 10 traps, which gets us too many lobsters.  We use our cute boston whaler to go from our dock to each of the traps to bait and check them.  So last night I went up to visit and had my first lobster of the season, call me spoiled but I usually get sick of them by the beginning of July.  Personally, I think its more fun to go out and catch them than eat them.  

Note: always accompany your lobster with a mount gay/tonic & extra limes.  

been there, done that, messed around...

Red Sox vs Angels

Last night I took my mom to a Red Sox game - she hadn't been in a few seasons so I thought since Mother's Day is Sunday; why not be a gem and take the lady!  We ended up drinking lots of sam summers & laughing at other drunk fans! I love her...

Boston Chamber of Commerce

Tonight I am attending the 101st annual meeting & dinner with several of my colleagues.  It is the largest gathering of Boston's business leaders; so should be a great event for networking & socializing.  The keynote speaker is Chesley B. "Sully" Sullenberger, III who was the pilot who landed the US Airways flight on the Hudson in 2009.  Hopefully Tom & Gysele will be in attendance again this year - maybe with the baby?
