Worcester or Boston? How funny I'll be in Boston at that time too (sans newf...he's already pouting). Unfortunately, the Red Sox will not be there until the following Friday.
Maine is a nice newfy hang-out, and only a couple of hours north on 95. (They're all small states in New England, right?) In fact, I've recently had eye witness reports of a couple ole newfs who can be seen occassionally on the Kennebunkport Beach. Instant friends. (We newfy families look out for one another you know. What's a mere 3,000 miles when chatting newf?) Stick near the Atlantic (which worcester is not) and you will not have as many mosquitos and the temperatures will be more reasonable. And the lobster...mmm.
I'm not so good with the Worcester area. New Hampshire, that's a different story...just north one hour. There are some gorgeous lakes around Peterborough & Hancock, NH (1.5-2 hrs north of Worcester) Lake Nubanusit (hidden gem) a clean and deep granite lined beauty. Don't tell my grandfather I mentioned it. The lakes region in NH is well worth the trip...I mean, if you're from South Dakota...what's the difference, NH, Maine, VT...it's all near by. There's the classic Winnepesaukee or the more managable delight of Squam lake (famous for being the location for On Golden Pond).
Whatever you choose, you'll have fun. And if your newf is like our newf...standing in front of the grocery store can be the most exciting thing in the world...bring on the love.
Have a great trip. I'm envious...cause it sounds like you probably aren't flying? My best regards to I-90. Wave at Beloit, WI on the way by.
Oh, here are more newfy people to chat up...
www.blackpawstudio.com they are in Amherst, NH. 50 miles north of Boston. They have a cadre of newfs...and I imagine could direct you toward goofy newfy fun. (There's Baboosic Lake just in their back yard for example.)
Would those be Veterinarian rotations at Tufts in Worcester...or more of the human persuasion?
