Lunch Adventure: Where are we and what is Tim doing?


For our next Lunch Adventure, we headed West. In just 20ish minutes, you can find a steep gorge and a bridge that once held bragging rights for the second largest masonry arch in the United States. It also has a special feature. Know where this is? First person to come up with the right answer gets bragging rights to be the first person who got the answer right!

Lunch adventure: Seafood, planes and rain


Winter was long and hard in Boston. If you lived through it, you know what an understatement that is. If you're not local, the Weather Channel reports that Boston received a total of 110.6" of snow for the 2014-2015 season, with 64.8 of those inches falling in February alone. While we were trying to keep hope alive that there would be ever be a Spring again, Sasquatch was cozily hibernating under cover. We're more than excited to get the van back, tuned-up and on the road. We've made lists of things we need to do: ongoing maintenance items, things we'd like to have to make van life more fun, and then the dream items—like a total interior makeover or solar panels to serve much of our energy needs on the road.

Most of all, we're excited just to enjoy the van. To start our season, we've challenged ourselves to come up with very local excursions we're calling the Lunch Adventures. Pick a nearby neighborhood. Find a spot that's unknown to both of us. Head out with an eye towards discovery. And, we don't have to worry about waiting for a table! First up—Belle Isle Seafood in Winthrop. Lobster rolls accompanied by a great view of planes landing at Logan. Know of a spot? Feel free to share! We'll write it up if we go. Enjoy the Spring!
