Enjoy!

Stanley looks at all the sights on the way in to Boston.

The Back Bay is very posh, but people still don't know how to shovel their confounded sidewalks.

So we went running in Boston Common instead, which was still covered with snow but at least a little easier to manage.

The pups were very well behaved.

Even by the Statehouse

For a while, Stanley didn't realize the "Make Way For Ducklings" ducklings were fake, and was pointing at them until he got his mouth on the mother duck.

Afterward, we all went home very tired and sore. The end.

Except for this. Myrna's sporting her "Dan Go Run!" T-shirt.
