  • A Columbus Day Salute to the Friends of Christopher Columbus Park

    This is the perfect day to give a round of applause and a pat on the back to the volunteers who make up The Friends of Christopher Columbus Park.

    This waterfront gem wouldn't be the welcoming and attractive part of the city that it is without the efforts of this group. The next time you enjoy the park consider making a small donation of your time or money to the all-volunteer group that makes it a better place.

    Thanks to everyone who hops over to Amazon from here to do their shopping. We appreciate your support. It doesn't cost you any more but they put a few coins in our tip jar.

  • Fumar, Smoking Up the Sand in Provincetown

    PMC_6578 - Version 22012-09-27-fumar-playing-tidal-flats-provincetown-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    This week's Sunday Dog is Fumar, one of our neighbors from a recent trip to Provincetown.

    PMC_6586 - Version 22012-09-27-fumar-playing-tidal-flats-provincetown-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Part of our entertainment was watching Miss Fumar (that means smoke in Spanish) playing chase the ball on the tidal flats in front of the apartments.

    PMC_6584 - Version 22012-09-27-fumar-playing-tidal-flats-provincetown-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    This smokey gray beauty came right over to meet our Poppy when she saw us out on our patio. She said a polite hello but really had one eye on the beach where her guys patiently tossed the ball time-after-time to keep her happy and healthy.

    PMC_6624 - Version 22012-09-27-fumar-playing-tidal-flats-provincetown-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    We were impressed by the sparkle of her jewel encrusted collar and were suprised to see that she wore her bling right into the water because chasing an orange ball was more important than keeping her "diamonds" clean.

    Fumar, you are a true athlete and a very classy lady dog! Hope we share a lawn with you again someday!

  • Opening Our Doors 2012: Free Events in the Fenway October 8th

    Looking for something fun to do on Columbus Day, Monday, October 8th? The Fenway Alliance has a full day of great, FREE events scheduled. Each year they organize Opening Our Doors. Today, this event is our Friday Link.

    Opening our doors 2012

    They say: "Opening Our Doors in the Fenway brings together many of Boston’s best cultural and academic institutions, community organizations and business partners in a wonderfully diverse day of free cultural activities for the whole family. Events range from music and dance performances to historical tours, lectures, walking tours of the Fenway, glass blowing demonstrations, indoor kite flying and much more!"

    You can download the full SCHEDULE OF EVENTS.

    We say: The Fenway neighborhood is far more than Kenmore Square, sports, and nightclubs. This is a wonderful opportunity to get to know the artistic and cultural treasures that bring dollars into our economy and support year round jobs.

  • Sunset Cruise Harbor Views

    We've been trying to fit as many experiences as possible into our new puppy's early life in Boston. Last week, we tested her sea legs with a Sunset Cruise around Boston Harbor. Yes, well-behaved dogs are welcome (more on that later). Meanwhile, here are a couple of photos Ed took that evening.

    The schedule over at Boston Harbor Cruises is reduced this time of year but there are a few opportunites to get out and enjoy our beautiful city from the water. Their Historic, USS Constitution, and Weekend Brunch cruises are still running.
