Bean town Adventures

Melrose, Mass

 

We have been spending time with my sister Nancy and her husband Karl. It has been real quality time.

On Sunday, we went salt water kayaking in the Anisquam River north of Gloucester Mass. That was lots of fun. Libby and I had traversed this river once before in Tarwathie, but we did it with the tidal current. In the kayaks, we paddled against the current. It was hard! At times we did zero knots made good.

Too ad that we didn't take a swim when we were in San Diego. Then, we could say that we wet ourselves in both oceans on the same trip.

On Monday, Nancy drove us in to Cambridge on her way to work. Then Libby and I had an urban day. We went to the Harvard Museum of Natural Sciences in the morning and to the MIT Museum in the afternoon. For me, the MIT museum was the better of the two. It focused on engineering, and things of interest to engineers.

Thanks much Nan and Karl.

  1. I thought about you when reading Steve and Lulu Yoder's blog yesterday. They have bought a 1983 Toyota camper and are planing land trips, but they are keeping their WS28. I wondered if you would have taken more time on your cross country with three more months of hurricane season remaining. Ken
