No Punning

My friends and I found this sign in Magazine Beach in Cambridge. It originally said "No Running", but someone decided that "No Punning" was better.

City Daily Photo is doing funny signs as its theme day today. (I'm not a part of City Daily Photo, but I like to follow the theme days). Check out their funny signs photos.

Freeway Revolt

This is the mural on Magazine Street in Cambridge.

In the 1970s, there was a thought that Interstate 95 would go through Cambridge. The people from that area would not allow their homes to be bulldozed and the neighborhood split in half by a highway. This mural shows how they stood up against the highway.

Even now, I95 goes around Boston, and Cambridge was spared from being split in half.
For different views of this mural, see here.

Bunny


I am a Little Bunny (unknown author)
I am a little bunny.
Eyes on the sides of my head.
I see to the left and right,
Behind me and ahead.


I am a little bunny,
These are my very long ears.
They help me hear many sounds,
I can hear from far and near.


I am a little bunny,
My strong legs are for jumping.
Warning others of danger,
I use my feet for thumping.


I am a mother bunny,
With a white and fluffy tail.
I lift it up into the air,
Babies now follow my trail.

Goose family

On Saturday there were a whole bunch of geese families out on the Charles River.

How are you keeping cool?

Cambridge Street Bridge

Another picture from Saturday -- here is a picture of the Cambridge Street Bridge in Cambridge MA. I'm pretty sure the red building is Genzyme.

Yesterday was 87°F and very sunny. How is the weather near you?

Kayaking on the Charles river

One of the many people enjoying the river this weekend. Quite a few people sail, kayak and crew on the river. This weekend was perfect weather, so quite a few people were out and about.

I was standing on Magazine beach when I took the picture.

Middle East Wall

This weekend we went to visit some friends in Cambridge, MA and took quite a few pictures there.

This is the wall on the side of the Middle East Restaurant and Night Club. This is only a portion of a beautiful mural made by Daniel Galvez entitled "Crosswinds". This mural was painted in 1992.

For more information (including a picture of the whole mural), see the Cambridge MA website.
