The Boston Marathon or as I call it, The invasion of the Stick People.
Truely a great day in Boston. The Red Sox play at 11am finish just in time to see the winner cross the finish line. You can start the day at 5am in Lexington for the reenactment of that battle then off to Hopkington for the start of the Marathon all kinds of food stands there, and large crouds.

It’s quite a festive atmosphere thru Wellesey and Newton, the students of the many local universitys have food stands and live music and if lucky you can score a beverage in a paper cup of course.

As Ashphalt said it’s the start of spring here. Chow Jim
