Photos taken on the train from Montreal to Quebec, Canada.

I had a fun day walking around Montreal, Quebec, Canada, visiting the Museum of Fine Arts (Musée Des Beaux-Arts de Montréal), Mont Royal, the old city and old port, and meeting a nice guy named Laurent, then returning to the B&B in the gay Village.

My sister hosted me at her place in Hanover. New Hampshire, where she works at Dartmouth Medical Center.

Not since I was a teenager had I visited Acadia National Park and Mount Desert Island, Maine. John, his nephew Gabe, and I hiked up Kebo Mountain, Dore Mountain, and Cadillac Mountain, almost all uphill, then we joined Gabe’s parents (and John’s brother and sister-in-law) Rob and Peg for popovers at the Jordan Pond House, one of my favorite places for tea!

Photos of my visit to James and John’s place in Sorrento and to my Aunt Loretta and Uncle Armour’s place on Branch Pond near Ellsworth, Maine.

Nubian, Assyrian, Egyptian, Greek treasures and fascinating antique musical instruments at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, followed by coffee with the awesome educator Arthur Lipkin, a walk across the bridge to MIT, and a reunion dinner of Gays at MIT (GAMIT) folks at Mary Chung’s restaurant in Cambridge, MA.

A visit to MIT, especially a delightful lunch with Holly Sweet of the MIT Experimental Study Group, followed by a wonderful walk and chat with Max through Cambridge to my old home at 13 Valentine Street, then meal with Max and his partner at their lovely home in Allston.
