Heard today that Boston, Massachusetts' seasonal snowfall is 108.6 inches (275.84 cm) at the moment. The previous record was set in 1872. So, if all the snow was on the ground at once, the ground floor of the buildings would be covered.

First Impression (t)
Shari and I spent a couple of hours doing a quick look around. I was mainly looking for restrooms. The downtown area was amazing and warrants another visit when we can spend several days exploring. Walking down narrow streets with towering buildings was very cool!

A Different View (p)
Fleetfoot McCarney runs the Boston Marathon every year. He hasn't finished one yet. He gets distracted looking up at the buildings and usually runs into something that takes him out. Last year it was two guys dressed in a cow costume that ended Fleetfoot's attempt!

Naked (t)
Lee turned twenty one today and was very excited. His buddies were taking him to a gentleman's club for his first time. He didn't sleep all night thinking about it. Turns out Lee's buddies don't spell well.

It Worked! (t)
Suzie and Lyle downloaded a bunch of free witch spells from the internet. They had tried about six of them with minimal success. The seventh spell, Heads Off, was a different story, which, unfortunately, neither Suzie nor Lyle will be able to tell.

We May Have A Problem
This is what happens when the focus is on witches. That spray you used for bugs turns out to have been a concoction for a "make 'em big" spell.

Go With The Flow (B/W)
This is the headwater of Jug Creek. The flow is regulated by Baxter Watergate. Sometimes, Baxter forgets to turn on the water and the creek runs dry.

As far as the visitors knew, this was just another chance to look at old tombstones. Little did they know that the caretaker had a few open holes he needed to fill to reach his monthly quota.

Dual Burners (t)
Zeek the Chimney Sweep cleans these stacks four times a year. That seems rather frequent considering the chimneys are only used once a month. However, witch debris is pretty messy and then there's that little forensic item called evidence! Salem, Massachusetts 2014

Not Necessarily So (t)
Fernando was on his third power drink of the morning when he decided he could leap from his balcony to the suspended platform the window washers were using on the building next to his. Evidently, power drinks do not enhance leaping capabilities as Fernando soon realized after his leap.

Tales Passed Down (t)
Rafferty didn't understand what the big deal was. The path was solid, mostly straight and pretty smooth. The elders told all the kids not to take the path. Those who did, never returned. Rafferty felt a little vibration and then blackness as the train passed. Another snail tale.

The pizza was hot and the beer was cold. Maybe a little too much beer was consumed. No one noticed the fish swimming through the air on Pacific Avenue.

Another example of the total disregard of nature. Someone relocated and defaced this perfectly beautiful boulder. When will people come to their senses? It was probably a prank committed by drunken college students!

Trolling (t) (B/W)
Roberto really got a kick out of the myth that vampires can't handle daylight. Add to that all the wannabe vampires, well, it sure made for some good feeding during the day and left his nights free for bingo.
The above is a fictitious story. Vampires really don't play bingo.

Slicing Air (t)
I watch these paragliders and wonder how much fun they actually have. No time to relax, always pulling, guiding, buffeting the wind, hoping the wind doesn't die over water or canyons. Besides that, how do you sip whiskey in one of these?

Rooftop
Just seconds before I pressed the trigger, there was a Beatles tribute band playing Get Back on top of the roof. Someone yelled, "You've been playing on the roofs again, and you know your Momma doesn't like it, she's gonna have you arrested!" The band split. The person who spoke the words was a Paul McCartney tribute person.

Taking Up Residence (t)
Somewhere around 1926, Herschel Sloakum started hanging out at the YMCA. It made him feel like he was a part of the Army and the Navy since neither one would take him. The problem was that Herschel was killed in a hunting accident in 1845.
