Our stay here in Boston has come to a close, and we are on the move to Portland, Maine. Despite waking up to Fenway Park outside my window each morning, Eko and I had an absolute blast during our week in the city. To answer the obvious question about Boston; yes, we love them apples. …
On our last full day in Boston the weather had gotten a bit colder, but that didn’t stop Eko from going for a swim. Actually, Eko would have gone swimming even it was snowing out because we had the indoor pool at the Red Dog Pet Resort reserved for a swim. The Red Dog complex, located just …
As I mentioned yesterday, our Freedom Trail tour dropped us off in Quincy Market. What I neglected to mention is that we were immediately pulled back into the 21st century by a group of break dancers who had taken over the square. A reenactment of the famous 1777 Battle of Breakdance On our …

After saying hello to some ducklings yesterday morning, we pulled out of Boston towards the Middlesex Fells Reservation in Medford, Mass – one of the famous stops on Paul Revere’s ride.

There is a good chance Winter might lose its job. It is already December in Boston (and everywhere else too, I guess) and Winter hasn’t shown up for work. Eko and I decided to take advantage of our good fortune with a tour of Cambridge, Medford and a few other stops in between. We got …
Now, I know we are heading outside of the city today, but last night I learned about some iconic statues in Boston which I absolutely had to visit. If you guessed that we visited the Paul Revere, George Washington or Sam Adams statues, you would be wrong (though I would like to visit the Sam …
In a shocking turn of events, Eko and I did not get lost today! We set out for the Joe Wex dog park and made it without a hitch. I thought at 10:30 am on a Wednesday the park would be quiet, but the place was jumping with dogs. In fact, I think the dog/human …
Last night, Eko and I walked back down to the Commons to check out the off-leash section of the park. Like I mentioned earlier, there is no fenced in area, so you have to be confident your dog will stay nearby. Eko is always good, but last night I had a little extra insurance in …
Well, we made it as far as Boston Commons before our plan fell apart. The Boston Common’s Dog Park is actually a section of the park where you can let your dog off leash between 6am – 9am and 4pm – 9pm. The area isn’t fully fenced in, so you should only visit if your are …
