Absolutely beautiful day in Boston for the Sail Boston Tall Ships parade in Boston Harbor…beautiful ships from all over the world I felt proud…nice to feel that way again. The first picture is “Old Ironsides” (USS Constitution)…
The Boston Pops show from the beautiful Boston Esplanade culminating with a fantastic drone and fireworks display…with an appearance by our beloved Mayor Wu and Governor Maura Healey…a perfect celebration of the best of America…no Trump in sight…a triumph.
Why I love Boston… Charles River Esplanade walk this morning…I think idyllic applies here.
It was! We are blessed! A very long time bucket list item finally checked off…
It is incredibly beautiful… From a 2024 vacation…Mt. Hood from Portland’s beautiful Japanese garden…(also my handsome husband…)
Boston Common was shoulder to shoulder filled with beautiful people… Here is a Frog in a tree…
My current view of Boston…(or lack thereof…) Brrrr. Stay safe out there friends.
Snow sky in beautiful Boston this morning…feeling cozy inside in my sweats and hoodie though. Have a lovely day friends. 💙
Quiet Sunday vibe… most of the leaves have fallen now and the colors faded. Winter is close. Wishing you all some cozy time today. 💙
This is my sweet Scoutie that I lost two years ago… miss her every day.
Good morning my friends. My current view of sunrise over Boston Harbor and the North End. Enjoy your day!
Joanne in Boston was in Providence Rhode Island today so naturally we had to attend No Kings at the gorgeous RI Statehouse! What a fantastic turnout! Looks like my beloved Boston did pretty great too…!
Good morning friends…first rowers on a calm and serene Charles River this morning. Hope you all have a lovely day….!
Beautiful sunset and crescent moon tonight over Boston…have a lovely evening my friends…
A few more pictures of the huge pro-labor/anti-fascism march in Boston yesterday…very inspiring! Have a great day friends!
A beautiful and serene Boston sunset tonight…starting to feel a bit like fall. Have a lovely evening everyone…❤️
A huge pro labor/anti-fascism march this morning in Boston..miles long march from Boston Common to City Hall Plaza. So incredibly proud of my city/state! Pics below of our amazing Governor Maura Healey having in-depth conversations with constituents…love her!
Those runners and cyclists look scary to me…😐 Here’s my Boston view this morning…another horrific and scary war zone of quiet river, tourists, duckboats, and people scurrying off to work…
Took a great boat tour of New York harbor yesterday…first time ever that seeing this lady made me sad…and ashamed. But she left me feeling more committed than ever to fighting for what she stands for…💙
So much sadness and pain in the world, but it is a beautiful summer morning in Boston…grateful for that. Happy new week my friends!
Great crowd in Boston this evening for the Mayday march! So proud of my city!
Some pics from our rally at Boston City Hall this morning in support of Mayor Michelle Wu who’s testifying before Congress today on Boston’s support for our immigrant communities. She brought her three week old baby daughter with her…love her, and love my wonderful, welcoming city.
The news is pretty icky today so here is a boopable picture of my grand dog Artie. You’re welcome…
