April 5, 2007 Baby you can Drive my Car.......
One of the great things about working at Hahhhhhhhhhhhhvid is that Cambridge is wicked easy to get to from my house. I do have to drive 40 miles to a garage, then a few miles on the subway. In fact, hahvid is the 3rd stop on the Red Line.Anyway, i never drive during rush hour. I just go south on Route 3 out of Nashua to start with; I am entering Massachusetts in no time, as you can see above. This is the state line.
Within about 20 minutes or so, i'm in sight of Route 128 (I-95).
Then, in about 4 miles, I see the turn off for Route 2 East to Cambridge
Soon, I see the Boston skyline (click on photo below) and the signs for Alewife station. Alewife station is the end of the MBTA Red line and there's a huge parking garage there.
This is the inside of the Alewife garage
Alewife is named for a fish. Yup, it's similar to a herring, but is actually a member of the shad family, from what they tell me on Wikipedia.

That's hahvid yahd right behind the brick wall. The whole commute is about an hour, but a really relaxing hour with no hassles, so I don't mind.
Since I started coming here nearly 6 years ago, I estimate that I have made this commute about 385 times.
Hey- here's my school locker!

Chuck -- this post is what blogging is all about. On the face of it, this is the most boring set of pictures ever -- BUT -- as a Brit, I found it incredibly interesting!!! Just seeing how cold it is still in Boston (it's 80 degrees here) and just seeing your locker at Harvard is so cool!!
