View from Charlestown Bridge, over VW delivery van, to new Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge No more mornings driving Peter to work, at least for awhile. Closing of the City Square ramp to 93 has made a walk or T-ride more sensible than merging into traffic to cross the Charlestown Bridge. Even later when I walk across for coffee there's lots going on, for example, my favorite Passats being delivered to some lucky new owner somewhere. If you order a VW, at least in the Eastern half of the US, chances are good that your vehicle will come in to the Moran Terminal at the end of Chelsea Street in Charlestown. And if I see it on the delivery van when I'm crossing the bridge, hopefully I'll still be on foot, and not stuck behind it in traffic, cursing.

Another trip to Braintree on Saturday shows the house wrapped with Tyvek in preparation for siding, a view up into the canopy of the maple and walnut trees, and the garden all cleaned up and looking great. And of course, it's always nice to get an onsite update from next door neighbor, Bill Frazier.
