The City in the Fall

One of my favorite seasons is fall. I love the change from hot, humid, oppressing heat to cool, crisp air. I love that I can take advantage of walking around the city without fear of melting. Lately I've been taking a loop around the Charles River in Harvard Square. It's so peaceful and makes me so happy.

There are some other great events/happenings this fall to look forward to:
*The Revels (this already happened and I didn't get to go this year but I went last year and it was so fun...it is a chorus that sings on the pedestrian bridge on the river)
*Oktoberfest in Harvard Square- always a fun time
*The Regatta- by far one of my favorite annual events. Hopefully the weather will be nice!
*Evening baseball at Cardullo's... can we say playoffs!

I drive through Harvard Square to get to work, and for most people this would be super aggravating. But for me, it's a kind of therapy. It helps me forget how much I don't want to go to work in the morning, and relaxes me after a long, ridiculous day. Brattle Street is amazing and if I was to ever win the lottery I would buy a house there. I love seeing all the people in the square. I especially love the cool, hip Cambridge couples. I aspire to be them.... actually I like to think JO and I are one minus JO drinking coffee and wearing a man scarf :-)
