#Boston #COVIDCautious peeps and anybody else who doesn't want to get #COVID or give it to somebody…
Thanks to HHS trying to get rid of their stock of at-home COVID tests, I have 300 tests I got for free. If you need tests and can't afford to pay for them and you can get to my house in #Brighton, I'm happy to give you up to ten tests for free, you just need to come get them. In a pinch I may be able to deliver. DM me to make arrangements.

Thanks to a friend being unable to use their tickets, on the spur of the moment my wife and I went to see #JajasAfricanHairBraiding today at #SpeakEasyStage, and hoo boy it is quite a play. #Boston peeps, it's playing through May 31 and I heartily recommend it.
Folks elsewhere, keep an eye out for a good production where you live!

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?
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.
Boston, Cambridge, Somerville - its like a switch has flipped and everything is happening again. Enjoy this city and recharge. Its your #BostonWeekend thread for May 1-4 2025 1/x
