[laurack]

careyalis how do you know it's bleached and not my natural color? And I'm NOT OLD I'm very young! I have benjamin button disease and this makes me sad, to be made fun of like this

[musiclover]

hahahaha
Rule #578: No laughing at my pasty white (yet toned) legs, I shall not be tanning for ANYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[teamhayes]

We are referring to the Boston Common right?

Its a big garden with a pond in the middle that you can take a swan boat ride around. There is a carosel there and food vendors - like a big huge park in the city.

[laurack]

oh well I was thinking of that bar The Gardens (the one with all the broken glass and dirty underwear outside) but I guess I'd be willing to also consider this "outside place"

[teamhayes]

no laughing at my untoned and pasty legs.... oh wait I don't fit into shorts so you can;t see my legs

not like you would look past my fat ass or huge stomach

[Faevantastic]

We talked about Franklin Park Zoo before. I think we figured out that you don't need to drive into downtown Boston and you could take a train to get there too?

[fryjack2]

IF you all meet at South Station, you can always go to the Rose Kennedy Parkway. IT even has a fountain for the little ones. And hello?! THe North End is steps away! Gelato!!

[devonpow]

You've never been to the Public Garden??? Make Way for Duckling statue? Swan Boats??? Ever read E.B. Whites "Trumpet of the Swan" as a kid?? Man, we should organize a Freedom Trail walk, too, and get some Boston history covered

[imimahoney]

I'm in! I live 20 min north of Boston. I'm off the entire summer so I am super flexible.

Nope....DH has taken me to Boston Commons, Fenway, some live music venues, the Science Museum and Blue man group, lol.  That's about it I think.  We did take a freedom trail walk a few years ago, and took my parents on a duck tour.

I do LOVE the North End though, YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bebeetmoi]

You ladies are making me want to come up an visit my family that weekend so DD and I can join! And PS musiclover the Gardens are awesome and lovely and there is nothing creepy about them. I'm shocked you've never gone before, the Swan Boats are adorable!

Woo hoo, Come one come all, this shall be the most awesome GTG EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <) You will all be jealous.

I really don't think I've been there, I'll have to ask DH.  When he was courting me (lol) many moons ago, we took a few trips into the city.

[Faevantastic]

Let's do eeeeeet!

[katfco]

I'm so jealous! I won't be up there visiting my family until Christmas.
(although I did just apply for a job up in CT, so *fingers crossed, but not too hopeful*)

[musiclover]

Well, I for one am going to pencil this into my planne,r with details to follow.

I shall grace you all with my awesomeness.....and N is pretty adorable too.

My only fear is that we'll just be chasing running toddlers in various directions and none of us will even get to talk, lol.

[Faevantastic]

We can always hire a few hot mannies?

[JuliaGulia]

Boo! I'm way to much of a wimp to drive into Boston alone!!

interesting. How old is he? PM his name as I am curious if my hubby knew him/went to school! He also grew up in the Beverly area, he's 38

[musiclover]

Send me your sizes, ladies!!!!

I am making up shirts that say, " Our FIRST MA/NH Anal Probie GTG".
I can only get them in hot pink though and there may be a photo of my face on the back.

[devonpow]

Oh, boo - I just realized we have Red Sox tickets for that day! Boooooooo !! 

[vthokie]

I am so very jealous of all the get togethers. I just needed to say that when I see this tread, it makes me sing Mnah Mnah do dooo do do do. That is all

[bean47]

I'm in! I'm not crazy about driving far into the city but I will!

[bebeetmoi]

I am shocked that so many of you are scared to drive into Boston! I was driving my little Camry down Sturrow Drive in HS, I couldn't wait to go into the city without my mother lol! But bean47 if I end up coming up the weekend to visit my family, I may be able to drive you in. My parents are in the North Shore and outside Manchester NH, so maybe we can work something out!

You're the sweetest! It's all in my head. I've driven in a couple of times no problem but then there was a horrible experience this fall. It involved a dying GPS, dead cell phone, screaming and hungry baby and a couple hours lost in a really sketchy area. I still haven't fully recovered!

Also I live outside Manchester and my parents live in the north shore

[wildcatprincess]

I wasn't tagged, but I'm working that weekend BOO. I want to meet someone.

Is this where you walk through from congress street to north end? I work in financial district and walked through on my way to the hairdresser on Salem street in north end. There were tons of kids running through the water sprinklers in swmsuits it looked so fun!
