Sorry I haven't written in so long! Things have been busy. Not in a bad way but in a way that makes me happy. Last week it was in the 70s and beautiful here. I soaked it up all I could and loved  it. I went to Fort Williams with some friends but of course by now it's cold again. I wait patiently for Spring!

A friend of mine was going to Boston on Tuesday for an interview and I decided to tag along and see the city since I had never been. I took the train into town and walked to the New England Aquarium. It was so cool! Unfortunately the battery on my camera was dead but I did get a few shots with my phone.

I decided to take an adventure this weekend and go to a small island outside Portland called Peaks Island. The port is just down the street and it's only 5 bucks for a 20 minute ferry ride. It was so beautiful and a nice mini getaway.
