Weekend Trip to Boston


Ahh, Boston.  One of my favorite cities...especially this time of year.  The other week, we journeyed up for the Harvard-Yale game (Harvard beat Yale 28-21) and to get some shopping done.  A visit to Boston's MFA, which is currently showcasing an amazing Avedon exhibit (post for that coming soon), and the recently opened Art of the Americas wing, was worth the trip alone.  That, and running into Bill Frist on Newbury Street, who, for the record, was very friendly!
