Oof. Just saw a car get towed. 🚗 Looking on the city's website it's street cleaning day. So most likely that's why it got towed. The website does let to set up an email alert.

I want the street cleaner to but also get your car back from the tow lots should be simple and cheap. Which I'm sure it isn't

When it stops raining I'll go make sure the signage, what says which days the street gets cleaned, is up and legible. I'm almost positive it is.

Signed to get Domingos DaRosa on the ballot for the race for Mayor. Don't know who I'm voting for yet, but I'm all for more folks to be running.

That's unfortunate, another small piece of grass in the city is gone.

Hello Cambridge/Somerville/Watertown/Arlington/Newton peeps!

What's your go-to bakery for a birthday cake? I usually do Quebrada but I'm wondering if there are alternatives I should consider?

Getting one for a friend coming next from out of town and she says she really likes vanilla or chocolate or mocha but with lots of pretty icing flowers. She said the "pretty icing flowers" twice so I think that's a must 😆 and Quebrada's cakes don't really have that...

So...

suggestions?

Fog, fog fog! Shortly after the sunrise, a thick fog blanketed the Blue Hills and surrounding area, creating an eerily beautiful landscape!

Sunrise this morning, May 3rd, from Buck Hill! A very foggy morning, that obscured the sun crossing the horizon, but made for some spectacular colors as the light broke through. About ten minutes after shooting this sunrise sequence, the fog would roll in even thicker, lowering visibility to a few hundred yards.

It's perfect weather for riding your bicycle. The trees are flowering, so it also smells great.

The only problem is the pollen which hits me like nature's tear gas. It takes hours for my eyes to recover.

I didn't realize they would be knocking down so much of the stadium. All that's left are some of the stands.

Hell at this point just knock down the rest of it.

ADA Accessible event in Brookline - Stand Out/Sit Out - Speak Out, Seniors!

2-3:30 pm
Coolidge Corner

This May Day, we’re speaking out for workers’ rights, for the protections we have earned, and against the growing abuses of the Trump administration. From mass firings of workers and billionaire takeovers, to attacks on Social Security, immigrants, and democracy itself, we refuse to stay silent.

Seniors and their friends of all ages are uniting to demand justice, dignity, and a future worth fighting for — for ourselves, for our children, and for generations to come. Walkers and all mobility devices are welcome!

Raise your voice. Protect our rights. Speak Out, Seniors!

Notes from the organizer: No chairs will be available - seating on personal mobility devices only.
