My Totally Awesome Day Off

Nov 23, 2007 13:57

Thanksgiving was my first day off from work in 3 weeks. I am with friends in Gorham, Maine, just outside of Portland. Tomorrow I head to Boston. As amazing as it is to love your job so much you don't care how much you work, it is nice to get away and have some real fun and adventure.

My last blog was while heading to Maine just before Halloween those long 3 weeks ago. And here I am back the first chance I get!! I love to come up here, to get out of the city, to see nature and spend time with my friends. It doesn't hurt that Boston is a quick jump away either.

The fast pace of Manhattan leaves me yearning to get away. For the time, it seems only the night time is the right time to be in Manhattan. I work afternoons so I don't have to deal with the morning crowds, and my work is a short walk from my home in Brooklyn.

On my last trip to New England I spent time in Salem and it draws me back again. Tomorrow I will have an adventure in Bean Town with my girl Natalie and we want to play among the Wiccans.

i want to see Salem graves. I want Clam Chowda in a bread bowl at Quincy Market and I want to see the Autumn colors of Boston Common, I want a beer at Cheers and I want to drive my cah on cobblestone streets made wide enough for 2 horse drawn carriages to pass in the night.

Sometimes you just wanna be a Tourist even if you've been and done that thing before. I have always had a love affair with the city of Boston, it is such a wonderful place to spend time.
