Walked to get tuna steaks from Morse Fish Co. and grilled it on the stove top.

Some people are people watchers, I myself am a bike watcher. Boston is a fixed gear Mecca. A Fixed gear is a bike at its utmost simplicity, no gears, and for the daring no brakes. It's direct drive. If you stop peddling the wheels will stop. I do have scars to show that a bike will still move (in the air) if the wheels stop.
Below is a knock off of a classic Italian bike. The green called celest, is its trademark color.

Urban legends

There are two rumors that constantly haunt me. 1) when the pilgrims first arrived the first thing they did... make beer 2) when German physicist were brought to the manhattan project the first thing they did ... join the local library. Not sure I believe either, but the first I did in Boston is ... make bread. Rumor has it...

Day One Executive Summary

Guys perspective: damn add a six pack of beer in the fridge and I'd say its a wrap.
Girls perspective: we are just getting started.
Movers perspective: three hutches, really? Is that absolutely necessary?
Painters perspective: why are you covering up my beautiful work with pictures of Lance Armstrong?

Ken said he had only done blackboard walls in little kids rooms. Perfect!

Making great progress!

When Worlds Collide

I handle anything mechanical, Cindy handles anything Ambiance. Sometimes these disciplines are at odds. I could not meet with the electrician on this particular day.


Electrician: "Uh... I .... Was thinking, I mean if its ok.. I was going to install PVC conduit for the new lines in the basement..."

...long awkward pause...

Electrician: "Now I have you pegged as a non PVC type of gal"

Cindy: "Yes well, I am prone to spray paint anything PVC"

Electrician says with an optimistic smile , "Ok, well then, how about shiny aluminum conduit"

Cindy: "How about oiled rubbed bronze?"

Electrician: "uh ...."

Cindy: "Ok galvanized for the basement is fine"

Electrician: "Where did you say the nearest bar was?"

Later that day.....

Cindy looking seriously at the painter: "Do you think these colors get along?"

Painter: "Excuse me?"

Cindy: "Well this looks fresh, and this looks happy, do you think they get along"

Painter: " I could tell by the way you dressed, you knew your colors"

Taylor thinking and too quiet to speak up, heck I know my colors and numbers, and I am pretty sure colors are inanimate and don't have the capacity to get along.

Taylor: "Perfect, I think they get along just fine"

Painter: "Yep, me too"

God bless America

Spotlight Hamersley's Bistro

Right around the corner is a top 50 restaurant of Boston. We concur. Beautiful place, great food, and libations.
Nothing like a cast iron skillet on a white tablecloth background.
