NH Wedding

This week my outside activity was a road trip out of the city. First my friend's brother's wedding in New Hampshire and then back to Boston to see my parents for my birthday. It rained (and severely flooded) the whole time we were in NH for the wedding. We managed to avoid the flooded roads with my barely two wheel drive car. I found out the next day that people died and houses were carried away so the rain was much more serious than I had thought.
Boston was very quiet, a ghost town compared to New York. My friend told me about this and now I get to experience it for myself. When you live in New York long enough every other place becomes eerily quiet, too quiet even just because it's so loud here. I was in Boston in the middle of the day and it felt like absolutely nothing was going on, like it was the middle of the night. I half expected tumble weed to pass by.
I also saw my friend's 10 week old baby which I didn't hold. It looked too strange and fraigle. I was afraid to drop it, or i'm not sure what made me so uncomfortable, but I just played with the little fingers and toes.
