As I said, I'm off of work today and it's snowing out, so I have time for inane things like blogging. To that end, here's the latest photo series of the highlights of our lives for the past 2 months; namely - hiking on warm sunny winter days, Bob and his inherent cuteability, Boston sights, graves, and memorials, and a few shots of our neighborhood. I know it's not very exciting...forgive me....

Blizzard Surfing
Well, due to the NE "blizzard", I am home today, and shamelessly surfing online. Reading David Byrne's blog led me to BoingBoing (billing itself as A Directory of Wonderful Things - gotta love it) that in turn led me to this post about Susan Pleshette on Isn't Life Terrible . The video in ILT's words:
"Suzanne Pleshette's major - and often overlooked - claim to Disney fame is that she appeared in the first feature film ever to be shot in Disneyland: 40 Pounds of Trouble. Who would have thought that Disney would allow Universal to use Disneyland as a background for a chase scene? But he did, and the footage of Disneyland seen in 40 Pounds is like a time capsule from the park circa 1961-2, featuring many scenes of many now-extinct attractions... as well as fabulous footage of nearly the entire park. It's terrific."
It has that superfluous wacky 1960's style, so entertaining, yet boring at the same time:
