Earlier this summer, I started getting up early and running before work. It's fit very naturally into my schedule, and I'm enjoying running. I've been running four days a week for 30 minutes, and I find it's a very easy schedule to maintain. It's pretty hard to take a photo of your shadow while running. The one above isn't the best, but you get the idea. Below, you can see a high school football team and dog owners enjoying the field.
Squirrel with a nut!
Canada geese are everywhere, all year long. At least they cross the street at the crosswalk.
I love the Victory Gardens, where neighbors can rent garden plots.
I run along the Muddy River, part of the Emerald Necklace. The landscape architect who designed Central Park in NYC designed the Emerald Necklace to be a string of parks in Boston. The parks aren't connected any longer, but there's a movement to reconnect them.
The beautiful willow below had a friend, but it came down during Hurricane Irene. Rest in peace, wonderful tree.
The tree below is so awesome in the way it leans all the way across the street.

Garlic edamame goes great with sushi. Seriously, we pretty much just ate the whole weekend.
