I have lived in Boston for a little over six years. I love the city, but I don’t like living here and am anxious to move somewhere less noisy, less busy, less… city.
Thankfully, there are places to escape – many within a short drive of the city. Concord and Carlile are my favorites for such escapades. Cami introduced us to the Great Meadows Bird Refuge when I was pregnant with Lily, and I love it. It is just that – a refuge – and not only for birds and other wildlife, but for humans desperate for a walk in some fresh air.
Poor Max wasn’t feeling well.
The kids had fun blowing cattails in the wind.
In the following photo, Ivy is telling Squiggles that she is standing too close to Ivy’s “pond” and to please move over to the other pond.
Squiggles obliged and moved over. Here are squiggles and Ivy reigning over their respective ponds:
‘Twas a very pleasant evening.
The next day Karen took her family back home to Denver and the rest of us have been crying ever since.
Who’s next???

There is a surprising amount of fluff packed into cattails.
I love this place. Thanks for humoring me whenever I need to go back for some refuge.
