Who says Chocolate Labs are hyper?

So, when we got a puppy a few years ago, the idea was accepted by me if we got the chocolate colored dog. He was so tiny and cute, but we heard from people that this color has a tendency to be a bit more hyper than say a black lab. Alas, 4 years later, we still love the creature and he has calmed down a bit. Have a look at this picture from July 4th; it is the epitome of calmness (Not!).

I'm going way back

Soooooooooooooooo, since I'm the only one who is out of date in the family of bloggers, I've decided to continue my rebellion by beginning with the past. Here are some lovely photos of the birthplace of education which we visited in the summer.(I have to say that since I'm a teacher and all :)) There are also some pictures of the fishing town where the book and movie "The Perfect Storm" were based. When you go to the East Coast, you have to eat "Lobstah" and so, we did. It was yummy!! We saw our dinner floating in the water and then a few minutes later, it was in our bellies.

We went on a whale watch and followed a mother and calf for about an hour.

Then we went to "Hahvahd" where we took the unofficial tour. The architecture is fabulous.

One surreal site was the Holocaust memorial. Each of these glass columns represents a concentration camp and all the way up is filled with the numbers of the prisoners.

If your from Cleveland, you know the West Side Market. Well, in Boston they have one too and I don't know if you can get goat here, but you can there!

P.S. I hope no East Coast Family was offended by this post.

What am I doing?

This is the theme for right now. I'm still figuring it all out and don't know who will even see this, but it's all good. If anything, it will be my diversion from the important things I need to take care of.
