I was zipping around town Saturday. I live near a city in Upstate New York, and I see my share of crazy drivers. But the one who hounded me Saturday just took the cake. They were zig-zagging in and out of a two-lane road, driving like something out of a Need For Speed Playstation game. I could see the driver in my rear -view mirror, making crazy 8’s for me. I let the driver pass (it was a lady!) and probably saved my skin in doing so. I noticed her license plate and she was from Massachusetts. No surprise there! I’m sorry to say but Massachusetts has the CRAZIEST drivers I’ve ever seen. My husband and the kids and I took a wonderful week-long vacation to Boston years ago. It was so beautiful and we got to enjoy a great many sites, but OH MY GOSH the traffic was tortuous. These people don’t believe in traffic signals, speed limits, nor the car turn signal lights. It was…. wild, to put it mildly.
Despite the absolutely crazy driving, I love Boston. I love the ocean. There are so many things to do in Boston that I wish we could have stayed longer. We do have hopes of returning sometime. If we do, I’m definitely checking out the Trusted Tours & Attractions website. They have the best listing of major attractions and the best discounts I’ve ever seen anywhere! It’s very convenient. They cover 23 of America’s big cities, and list all the best sightseeing tours for stuff in Chicago things to do, San Francisco, New York, and more. I like browsing their site for ideas for future places to see. And if you sign up for their newsletter, you are entered a contest to win a $150 iTunes gift card. Nice deal! I get the newsletters and they are very nice. Now, if they could only do something about that insane traffic… <


Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I'm a freelance writer for national media outlets like USAToday.com, Salon.com, and others. I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.
