1. The Boston Bruins won the Stanley Cup, and just about every Bostonian came out to the parade the following Saturday to celebrate. I felt like I was back at USC on Gameday, but really it was just an entire city celebrating an ice hockey victory with friends, family, beer, and lots of black and yellow confetti.
2. Ran the Inaugural Boston Athletic Association 10K on Sunday, June 26 to mark my first-ever competitive race with a finishing time of 52:46.
3. Watched gorgeous sunsets from my apartment window after work.
4. Visited the incredible Dale Chihuly, a glass blower from Seattle, exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts (conveniently located directly across from my apartment) as part of Fun Fridays, sponsored by the Huntington Foundation that will sponsor free cultural visits to various Boston landmarks and museums on Fridays throughout the summer.
5. Celebrated the 4th of July with a day in the Public Garden with my roommate and some lovely ducks, a delicious meal inspired by the apparently traditional salmon and peas pairing found in New England for Independence Day, and a fantastic fireworks display watched from my apartment window while listening to the live stream of the broadcast from the show at the Charles River (that I was too scared to actually go to because I heard it was a mob scene full of people who had been staking out their spots since 9am that morning).
