Lowell River Walk
Great day today - weather wise. Mid 70s, bright sun. Blue sky.
I took the above picture on Sunday evening - when the weather was
nice, but every thing was hazy from forest fires in Quebec. Went
on the same stroll this evening - but the light wasn't so fine for
pictures.
What have we noticed about New England - or at least Massachusetts.
- Fortunately, we were warned - at traffic lights - folks making
left turns have the right of way. Not legally, mind you. But,
actually. I tested it myself by making a left turn in front of
of a cop car. But, unlike back home, most cars seem actually stop
when the light turns red.
- More traffic - street name signs and highway number markers
are almost nonexistent.
- Carlton thinks that women have more generous - shall we say
- "features". I think that maybe it is the way women
dress up here in the summer. Down home - ladies of my age don't
even do sleeveless. Here tank top seems to be fine - even for
the ladies doing the evening TV news.
- The whole place is Dunkin Donut crazy. Former Labor Secretary
Reich is running for governor. Yesterday he was on TV with a box
of Dunkin Donuts. Chocolate covered cream filled hummers.
