New Fall photos

I've got some images posted from the Topsfield Fair, the Allston Street Fair and the Boston Ahts Festival (most just glass blowing demonstration).

More fall foliage and scenes from NYC to come.

Enjoying Fall This Weekend (10/18/-10/19)

Here are some fun outdoor things going on this weekend. Because I play softball on Saturdays I might only make it to this stuff on Sunday, but either way, seems like lots of fun.

Boston Pumpkin Festival

CITY HALL PLAZA: Saturday.
When a Guinness World Record and 30,000+ pumpkins are on the line, it's pretty safe to say that not all these jack-o-lanterns are going to be prize-winning pieces of artistic prowess. Nevertheless, we'll be checking 'em out this Saturday.


Fort Point Open Studios: 249 A Street Coop

Website: http://www.fortpointarts.org/

Friday 4-7pm, Sat and Sunday 11-6pm.

Come visit the studios of 200 artists, explore our unique and evolving neighborhood, and discover new artists and treasured favorites.
Tour studios, meet artists, see public art outside, performance, and more, and participate in hands on art projects. All of our studios are within easy walking distance of each other, and we have plenty of free parking. Open Studios events attract about 10,000 visitors to our neighborhood, offering the public a rare glimpse into the living and working spaces of artists.

Head of the Charles: Regatta
Saturday and Sunday from BU to a bit past the Eliot Bridge along the Charles.

From Going.com: "You haven't "done" Boston until you've rounded up Muffy and Chaz from the country club, casually draped a sweater around your shoulders and proclaimed this year's regatta to be "the best display of coxmanship" you've seen since your days in New Haven."

Rowing isn't really my thing but I like roller blading or biking down Memorial so this might be a fun day to do this and take some photos of the rowers.
