Boston Marathon 2014

The 2014 Boston Marathon proved that a city, state, and nation can come together after a tragedy stronger than ever. An amazing spring day greeted runners and viewers along the entire course. American Meb Keflezighi won the Men's division for the first time since 1983 and Dick and Rick (Team) Hoyt completed their 32nd and final marathon in a fitting conclusion to great event and year of recovery.

Nissitissit Covered Bridge in Fall

Last weekend began the peak foliage show in southern New England. On a Sunday afternoon we took a quick drive to Brookline and Hollis, New Hampshire to visit some local farms, view the foliage, and of course snag some pictures of a covered bridge.

Full set of fall pictures are here on Flickr. More to come this week!

Swedish Car Day 2013

This Sunday was the 14th annual Swedish Car Day at Larz Anderson Auto Museum in Brookline. Great turnout this year with lots of great examples of Saabs and Volvos from the 1950s to today - including the new Volvo V60 wagon, which is the only one in America.

Boston Rainbow

This late afternoon, most faced a series of intense thunderstorms and flooding rain on the evening commute. However, immediately after, the sun came out and a fantastic double rainbow lingered for more than 30 minutes over the Boston area.

Boston Marathon 2013

Today was the 117th running of the Boston Marathon on Patriots' Day - one of the best days of the year in Massachusetts. Unfortunately, there were some terrible terrorist attacks at the finish line which cast a shadow on the day, killing at least 2 and injuring dozens.

Sharing some of my images from the day to prove that there is some happiness out there and to hopefully raise some spirits.
