Middlesex Fells hiking with the view of Boston skyline

Boston skyline is very hard to capture because of the tallest building in not only Boston but also the whole New England isn’t in the downtown cluster 😆

Nice little walk around Jamaica Pond

As a city dweller for several years I had never done this. Just drove by and was amazed how beautiful it is. Today is a good day to finally do it and enjoyed the crisp air and the snow!

A periodic reminder that there is an email list for my modern classical radio program.

Each week I sent out a *single* email with links to information about the week's show, plus a link to the high quality audio for the show.

(It's a link on https://samply.app/ If you have good internet bandwidth, you can even get lossless quality. But the default is great.)

Tasting event for our wedding in June at Boston Public Library, Guastavino Room. The whole night was amazing. Tasting menu for 9 courses of appetizers, 3 courses of salads, 5 main courses and countless desserts.... Pics are just a few of them...
Oh yeah 5 different kinds of wine pairings...

We have to pick a subset of these dishes so we scored each of them with two of our friends. It was such a fun night, we felt like we were judges in cooking shows 😂

Got to finally meet our fabulous wedding producer. She was awesome and very enthusiastic. It has been great working with her!

I've been to BPL many times but I am still in awe how beautiful it is. Can't even put it in words. So looking forward to our wedding.

Oh did I mention that our wedding will have unlimited alcohol 😂
