    **STANDARD CITY PHOTOS TO FOLLOW** Ok we're going to start off my photos from Chicago with something that maybe no one here will care about, but I'm gonna give a shot... The older I get the more I appreciate John Hughes and his stable of movies, and the more I look into them the more I realize...

    Going to Chicago, looking for recommendations

    Hey all, I'll be doing a five night vacation in Chicago at the end of the month and would love to get some recommendations on good spots for food. Also activities and things to see, but I've been to Chicago a good number of times before so I don't need too much help there whereas I don't know...

    Brattleboro, VT -- Peak Green Edition

    The wife and I made a little weekend excursion to Brattleboro -- my childhood hometown from ages 1-7 -- two weeks back and once again I fell in love with the place all over. We stayed right in the heart of downtown (real mixed bag--more on that later) and wandered all over, including a hike up a...

    Hawai'i

    I just went to Hawai'i for the first time and I have no idea what to say other than it lives up to the billing. It was for our honeymoon and we went to the big island. Also we broke up the travel out there by spending a few nights in Los Angeles (should've been two nights but the non-storm on...

    Buffalo and Niagara Falls....

    Best vacation spot EVER. So I went to SUNY Buffalo (aka UB) for two years in the 2000s and one of my best friends from that school still lives out there. Last time I visited him and spent any meaningful time out there was 2009, so when he buys a house last year and I'm now living a car-centric...

    Random Real Estate Pics

    I think I'll be accumulating a lot of shots like this going forward and no existing thread really seems appropriate for these so I'll make this my dumping spot for these kind of shots. FYI I'm one of the thousands/millions of people that switched careers amidst the pandemic and now I'm a...

    kz does San Diego and LA

    The lovely girlfriend and I went on our first vacation since 2019, hooray! I've spent about two months out in Southern California over the years and I always have a good time out there, plus the lady has a best friend out there but has never been, so it became a no brainer. There were many...

    Best Cafes of Boston

    So I moved back up into the area and I'm wondering if someone could recommend some good cafes in the city? Doesn't really matter what neighborhood, anywhere in Boston/Cambridge/Somerville would be greatly appreciated. So I'm definitely a coffee snob and don't mind paying more for a great...

    Landscapes and skylines: the Continental USA in ~100 pictures

    I've posted these elsewhere and meant to share them here but apparently I never did? These are from a summer tour my rock band did in 2016 that spanned 48 shows in 30 states (plus Toronto) and had us driving through nearly all of the continental 48 states. It was a dizzying and highly positive...

    kz's Wanderings Around Greater Boston

    So fate has brought me into the life of a girl who lives near Hanscom, and we've been doing the long distance thing for over three years by now (fun!). I decamped to her place back at the beginning of April given where the situation in NYC vis a vis COVID-19 was at, and have been living a very...

    I just had the good fortune to be able to stay five nights in beautiful Carmel, CA this past week, which by any and all accounts is a different planet from anywhere else on well... the planet.

    Day Trip to Brattleboro, VT

    So I Made a little trip up to Brattleboro during one of those rainy days last week.
