"He who binds to himself a joy
Does the winged life destroy;
But he who kisses the joy as it flies
Lives in eternity's sunrise."
-William Blake
I used to only take photos, but now I'm writing down the random stuff that pops in my head. Mostly it's stuff about living and working in Boston/Cambridge.

Best Friends
My mom (on the left) and her best friend Cindy, who came to Boston to spend time with me yesterday. We had such a wonderful time, and I was so happy that they came. Unfortunately I had to say goodbye after a few hours and go back to work.

Life isn't always easy for a grasshopper
This grasshopper (or grasshider in this case) was found on the edge of the field that had recently been hay harvested. I didn't notice until I uploaded my pictures that the poor grasshopper had lost one of his antennae.
