the boston day trip

the boston day trip
$15 each way
how could you resist?

we went for lindsey
matt's best friend
who's up from florida to visit
for the umpteenth time
thank god

she'd never been to beantown
and i've not been back since i was in high school
touring colleges campuses

my friend chris richards (the one and only)
was in the city visiting his friend sarah

so we made a day of it

a full twelve hours spent in someone else's neck of the woods
just sitting back and letting it take you where it does
as others generously make the plans

who knew
that bostonians were the nicest people on earth?
bafflingly, confusingly so

every single person we encountered
was beyond kind
courteous, helpful & hospitable

from 7 am
when lindsey and i caught the bus from new york
to 4:30 the next morning
when the two of us stumbled back into my apartment
it was a great day

boston
i had no idea?
ya learn something new every day
