Boston during the first snow

We took Jym's parents into Boston yesterday and poked around. We saw the Christmas tree, a gift from the people of Nova Scotia, on the Commons. I had to scoot through a police barricade to get so close.


Then we went to Boston's truly amazing public library where Jym received inspiration from the three muses.
This library has some remarkable murals painted by artists like Puvis de Chavannes and John Singer Sargent. There is even a gallery on the main floor that is currently showing a retrospective of George Bellows's work.


Then, to end the day in the best possible way, we had a lobster boil at home, courtesy of Jim and his dad.
Yummy good times.
