A quality brewery is an asset to any community that has one. Sam’s is quite good. It’s what beer was like before the mega-breweries standardized all the specialness out of the product.

We tried three varieties and they were all interesting. Then they gave us coupons for Doyle’s, a neighborhood pub where i once played many years ago with my first band. It was a real trip down “Memory lane”.
Then we went to Brighton to the New balance Factory Outlet and bought some Running Shoes made in the USA.
Yes. you read that right.

The factory Outlet in Brighton is right around the corner from where they are made, so the prices are quite good.
And I really like the shoes.
I also walked around the old Coast Guard Station (now Squantum Point Park) and located where Amelia Erhart used to fly her airplanes. very cool place, covered in wildflowers, some WW2 ruins, and lots of seabirds.

I can’t figure that out either. When I lose internet I can use my iPad for works only. Some day I might figure out how to copy and paste.
Reading and commenting are good. d:o)
