Happy First (Official!) Day of Summer, everyone! Even though the forecast for the next week or so is calling for plenty of rain and more than a few scattered thunderstorms where I live- today is shaping up to be nice, warm and very sunny. It’s a fitting way to kick off the season- and I […]

Late-Spring Girls Weekend…

The coming week(s) ahead are going to be busy ones for sure. In-between working my full time job, I’m also going to be catching some live music this week, attending Boston Calling on behalf of indie617 and then picking up a friend who is flying in from Italy for what I’m hoping will be a […]
