A Long Weekend in Boston
Last fall we spent a long weekend in Boston. My best friend, Megan, moved out that about a month before our trip and we enjoyed a weekend of fun, great food, history, and wonderful company. We arrived on Friday evening and headed right for some chowder. We lucked into two seats at the bar at…
