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.

Full set of pics are here on Flickr.

 

The Thames at Night

Only a few weeks ago, we took a trip to London to visit a friend from the U.S. who is going to school there. The first night we arrived, we took a walk down the Thames to take in some views of the city. London has such a great blend of historic and modern worlds, we spent a few hours just wandering.

Will have a few posts coming up with pics from the trip, so look out for those.

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.

Bring Back Boylston

Nearly two weeks after the Boston Marathon tragedies, Boylston street and Copley Square reopened in Boston. On this beautiful day, thousands of people turned out to view the memorial site, pay their respects at the bombing sites, and patronize local businesses. Slowly, a sense of normalcy began to return to Boston.

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.
