the homestretch

There is pretty much only one thing on folks' minds around here: Election Day 2012. We urge all who are registered to vote to do so tomorrow - let's surpass the almost 57% that voted in 2008!

walk, Dorchester

walking to work at Baker Chocolate

I liked this BBC video, How to get America to walk about efforts in Raleigh, North Carolina - first I thought: "how to get America to walk? I just want more people in Dorchester to walk!" Then it made me think: "we really need wayfinding signs! hmm, unsanctioned campaign..." Then, it made me glad we live in the city - wow I would hate to live in the suburbs where there aren't even sidewalks...

Save the Lower Mills Library

One of Dorchester's excellent library branches is threatened - please help - attend a benefit Weds April 14th, 6 pm at the Ledge.
