Today the weather in Boston made it the kind of day that you just couldn't be bound in an office, even with open windows. Usually, this late in October it's a bit colder out but today it's just perfect.
My dog shared my enthusiasm for being outside instead of just curled up under my desk so we grabbed some treats, scooper bags and her leash and headed for Dorchester Park.
The first thing I noticed was the colors. It's that time of year. We're about 2 weeks away from peak leaf color here in Dorchester but don't let that stop you. We usually stay on the paths in the park but today the smells excited my furry buddy and she wanted to wander into the woods. I'm not sure why I never noticed all these little trails before today. They are everywhere in the park and some are certainly as old as the park itself.
Do youself a favor, get a little excercise and go explore the beauty in your own back yard.
