The Perfect Weekend Away City

Boston has become one of my favorite towns. I still don’t like driving here and I just can’t stand Red Sox fans that aren’t baseball fans. But these two points aside I am learning to like Boston.

I come up here several times a year since I started going to VT meetings and will continue to do so. There are many great VT locals in and around Boston. I highly recommend you come on over and meet them if you get the chance.
Boston itself is such a walk-able city. You can see most of the major sights and not have to worry about getting back. Then when you get tired the T here is good enough to get you around. Many call Boston a very European city and I can understand that. It does have a unique feel to it here in the States and makes you feel like you’ve really gone somewhere.

Some of my favorite things to do here include the Mapparium, the Museum of Science, walking the gardens and of course, eating.

Old News....

We are coming. March 15-17, 2003. VT Road show coming your way.

In less than one hour I will be off on this adventure. The excitement is building. The groups are ready. The poor fools around will surely be dragged in.
