Hi Thomas

Have fun. If you don't like the weather, wait a minute and it will change. Old Boston proverb. Besides, the wind in SF during the Summer isn't exactly balmy either!

Talk of seafood is making me hungry. Two places in Boston I like (more importantly, my wife likes them too). Atlantic Fish on Boylston near Copley Sq and the new Legal Seafoods Harborside place on Northern Ave. I'm not a fan of Legal in general, but their new place is quite good. Name comes from their original restaurant near the courthouse in Cambridge as I recall.

Having a great time looking for images! Yesterday after work visited Gloucester and Rockport. Headed down to Boston t walk nd shoot the Independence (?) trail. I've extended y stay and am now returning on Tuesday - apparently just in time as, as Jim stated above the weather which has generally been good so far if at times cold, a major storm with be rolling in from the with south on Wednesday bringing tropical winds and heavy snow/rain. Got 3- 1/2 days left to shoot!

Hi Thomas

Sounds like you're enjoying yourself. Post some of your pics when you get a chane.

It's a beautiful cloudless day but a tad on the cold side with temperatures in the teens and HE wind 10-20.I'm on my way to Fall River which I haven't seen yet. I was there Friday afternoon calling on 2 seafood processors which I barely made the appointments (they were in a hidden location but luckily within a couple of hundred metres apart) after which I met up with Ray for photography, dinner, and a film on Vivian Maier in Newport, RI. Did the Boston Harbor Walk down to South Boston ("Southie") yesterday. Interesting historically but not as "scenic" as Gloucester or New Bedford, and then drove out to Nantucket Beach where I took a sunset shot of DT Boston across the harbor with the F6 and Porta 160. An 85km lens is the longest lens that I brought (150mm for the 645) and the sun was setting to the left of city skyline where most of the color was.

Commute traffic should be easing up - gotta go.

Made it all the way to the tip of Cape Cod where I hiked 2 miles out to the lighthouse to take its picture. It's an active CG station but you can rent the lighthouse keepers house which is a large 2 story structure. On my way to Trinity church and Chinatown and then to the airport.
