The city is wonderful! So accomodating, and we can walk less than a mile to do any number of things that really impress us! Back bay, the eastern Prom, Old Port...
Friday nights are free at the Museum of Art. We managed to go and see Monets and Degas 6 blocks away!
We were at the Farmer's Market in Monument Square on Wednesday, braving the rain above and puddles below for some plump, fresh, local organic bok choy.

The food choices are astounding. The local movement is alive and well. Arts are thriving. "Community" is very welcoming and full of ideas and groups for every interest. The "local" movement that's alive and well and while rest of the economy seems to be in the tank, this feels doable. There are a plethora of small, independent businesses of all sorts here. The community comes out in support of one another in a big way, and do a lot of collaborating. There's the "Hours Exchange" where by volunteering/donating whatever skills you can offer, you "bank" the time spent. Everyone's time is valued equally!
People here seem so unpretentious and just, well.. cool!

I was pleased to see that an accepting and forward thinking community exists here.
Feeling very much at home. Still many things on our list of things to do....
