Boston 2008





Posted by PicasaZach and I had such a good time out east this past weekend! We were lucky to stay with our dear friends, Jon & Regina, in their great apartment for four nights. They managed to play tourist with us and parade us around Boston on the Freedom Trail, harbor cruises, great restaurants, and a RedSox game. Zach's first visit to Fenway lived up to tradition while the Sox pounded the Tampa Bay Rays. There is so much history and team spirit in that baseball stadium it is hard to walk away and not be a Red Sox fan!

We also attended a beautiful wedding for our friends from Idaho, Taylor & Lauren in Scituate, MA. Beautifully set between two identical New England beach cottages, that had a boy & girl theme, the bride and groom where lucky to just miss the rain storm from Hurrican Hannah. It was a gorgeous setting surrounded by white hydrengenas and a small distance from the Atlantic ocean. We enjoyed the food, the band, and the friends. Taylor & Lauren are a great couple and have a wonderful future ahead of them!

Our travels back to Idaho where anything but enjoyable. We left at 6am east coast time, got stranded in JFK airport (don't ever fly there if you can help it). We had to scramble to get on another plane out west, they lost our luggage, refused to bring it to us, and then as we are driving back from Boise in the middle of the night we hit an antelope! Hitting the antelope was the last straw for me and I couldn't help but shed some tears over the entire incident.

But we are back to Idaho and easing back into the simple life...next up another friends wedding, and then perhaps some firewood outtings ;-)
