A Simple Drive on a Three Day Weekend

October 11th was Columbus Day, my roommate and I had the day off from work and decided to go for a drive in the city.

Careful, no turn on red here. But did you know that you can turn left on a red when both streets are one way (in boston at least)? This was news for me.


We drove past the Church of the Covenant on the corner of Newbury and Berkeley Streets on this slightly overcast day (notice the blue tint on the windshield, not intentional).


Ever notice the line in your side-view mirrors: "Objects in mirror are closer than they appear"?Like your goals and ambitions, no matter how far away, they're probably closer than they appear. Just remember to check that blind spot before changing lanes.


It's amazing the beauty you can capture from a simple car ride. I suggest taking some time off from your busy schedule and go for a drive, or just walk around. Absorb the beauty of your surroundings and that stress just seems to disappear.

    Wow! This is new to me too. Interesting.

    I like the church picture, it's pretty.
