I would like to plan a trip to Boston where my college boy is in attendance. At this time of year I begin to ache for a hug and a visual. Besides my plan for some exchanges of squeezes which are probably in direct contrast to any child’s plan when their parent comes to visit (fitting me in if he has to but will oblige for a couple of non-dorm meals), I am hoping to experience falling snow. This puts me in a precarious position as I really don’t own any cold weather clothes. No coat. Only flats andsandals. I am SoCal all the way. He says the side walks are cleared immediately and the indoors are over compensated with heat and that we over bought on his winter clothes. Oh well. What did we know so I am thinking I may be okay.I envision walking through the shops on Newbury and Charles and seeing what life is like completely different than what I experience on a daily basis. I might wimp out if I give this too much thought.

UPDATE: I wrote the above last night and now I am looking at pics of this morning’s aftermath. Yikes! I am totally unprepared!

So, what do I really need to take?
I could use some advise!!
