I've forgotten how much I like Boston. I appreciate DC more for its people than the urban structures themselves. I respect Manhattan for its sheer tenacity. Philly is beautiful; my first and true love. But Boston, I just like it here.

I like it enough to ignore the fact that it's a beautiful warm day in Philly, but 10 degrees cooler and overcast here. And I like it as long as I'm not trying to park in Brookline. Or, really, trying to drive anywhere. Learned those lessons the hard way, years ago.

I'm with you on this one! I LOVE Boston, it is the only city I would consider living in besides Philly. Philly is my home but Boston could potentially be my home away from home.

You know, I feel much the same way. Could be that my mom's a Boston Blue-Blood, but there really is something about the city.

I have to go to both Woods Hole (for which I fly into Boston) and Irvine (for which I fly into LA) regularly for work and the first time I went up that way, I didn't want to go home. LA is LA, but it's also very much not for me. I could easily see myself relocating to Boston permanently if I had reason to.

Oh, sorry. I thought I let you know! Meeting for a board I'm on, Sunday morning, and just seeing people the rest of the weekend. Staying with Adam Sunday night after he gets home from MD, since he volunteered to do the crazy AM ferrying of Desh to the airport that Hyoun so graciously did that other time. So maybe give us a call Sunday night?

You probably did and I just blanked on it, it's been that kind of month.

Perhaps we should potluck dinnerify or something, since I know the three of us Bostonians are a bit on the broke side? We'll talk! :)

Boston is pretty damn cool. Try flying into it in the fall time, as the plane banks low over the pretty colors in the New England trees.
