Day 8: Picnic at Post Office Square

Posted by Adam Sell July 8, 2008 02:06 PM

boston60_logo.jpgI'm Adam Sell and I have two months left before I leave Boston. My challenge? Do something in the city every day. Have ideas for my adventure? Send me an email.

I wanted the rain gone. I'm not sure I would have chosen 90 degree heat and high humidity to replace it, but beggars can't be choosers, right?

A friend and I slathered on the sunblock and headed to Post Office Square, for the free acoustic concert series during lunch hours.

Turned out the music was very much a background thing, but these guys were pretty good. I'm not even really into "Dixieland/Swing", as the website describes it, but it was cool nonetheless.

I don't think I'd ever come across that patch of grass before. It was like a little quadrangle right in Boston's Financial District.

I want to go start a Frisbee match over there and see if I can get any attorneys to join in. It'll be like right out of a beer commercial. It'll be great!
