Neponset River Greenway, Boston MA
In all these years, it just never occurred to us to turn in and explore. We’ve always just driven by the Neponset River Greenway. But that all changed today and let me say that we have been missing out. There are so many paths to walk, run, bike and – for us – scooter. It’s…

Revisiting Magic Wings Butterfly Conservatory in Deerfield, MA
It was even more magical than the first time. A trio of white peacock butterflies kept flying around me and then kept landing on my legs – they really liked my legs. Some older ladies started taking pictures of me with the butterflies. So if you start seeing me on random family feeds, you’ll know…
