Jana and I arrived in Boston a few hours ago. I have a week off, and in addition to discovering Boston and our online friends here, I plan to get some writing and reading and contemplating done. If you’re a fan of MoF and are in the area, drop me a line!
For now, I’m exhausted from a day of travel, and am going to leave you with a few photos (they don’t do the locale any justice, but they’ll have to do for now):
We’re celebrating 15 years of wedded bliss, and half of our lives as partners:
We’re staying on historic Beacon Hill, where they still use gaslight lamps:
Specifically, we’re staying at the charming, two-centuries old Beacon Hill Friend’s House. Our room is just a few feet away from the meeting room:
More adventures tomorrow!

So jealous! I didn’t think to visit Beacon Hill Friends House the last time I was in Boston. Well, Quakerism wasn’t that important to me at the time.

I’m jealous too! … oh wait! I live in the area!
I love Boston and the North Shore. Its one of the main reasons I don’t live in CA anymore. I’ve been planning the weekend, so you should hopefully be in for some fun with a walking tour of downtown Salem, and possibly a scenic drive up the North Shore with a visit to Gloucester.

Have a tonne of fun, guys! It’s really cool that you’re staying at the Friend’s House…is this a spiritual retreat as well? If so, even more cool!
