This Time, It Was Less Than A Feeling

Boston with an iPhone

I arrived in Boston late February for what would only be my second time there, yet already the city was beginning to lose some of its shine for me. I guess once you’ve visited most of the historical sites the only thing left to do is… well… eat. Although there was more to it than…

WTF?

Mike's Pastry

God do I hate tourist traps. Maybe I’ll try again early Monday.

A Nor’ Easter of a Trip!
