Beantown

We were in Boston for a week visiting family and friends. Here are snippets of what I learned:

- Wood shingles are a requirement for structures by lakes (and add a hint of color).
- Those italians in the North End know how to make and market glorious treats on little more than notebook paper. But man, do they really need any pr? - Life is not moving as fast as you would think.

- Boats are kind of a big deal out there.

- Window shopping menus is a fine art.

- When you have the time, take the water taxi.
