deep pour 🥃
• garden matinee, high stakes
it’s the bruins’ final preseason game at home, 2 pm vs the rangers. doors 1 pm. nhl network is carrying it, so the buzz will be loud. it’s also a last shot for a few players to earn a roster spot, which means fast shifts, big effort, and coaches watching every detail. get there by 1:15 to clear security and catch warmups.
• fenway at night, easy
chance goes on at 8. lansdowne fills fast, so arrive a touch early for merch and a quick water fill on the concourse. green line to kenmore is the cleanest move in, and stepping a block off lansdowne before you request a ride trims the wait.
• paradise sightlines that work
skinshape is listed at 7 with an 18 plus policy. travel light and slide in a few minutes early to tuck under the balcony rail for a clear view without the push. the bu west stop drops you close, and the 57 bus is a reliable backup if trains bunch.
• greenway artisan market, easy win
roll in mid-afternoon for lighter crowds and time to browse; most vendors take cards, but a small stash of cash never hurts. bring a tote for ceramics and prints, then loop the harborwalk for a skyline snap before your evening plans. hours are 11 to 5 today on the greenway, weather permitting.
• have yourself a museum day
the museum of science runs a hispanic heritage month celebration from 10 to 4 with bilingual demos and hands-on stops. timed museum admission applies, so lock your slot early and screenshot your barcode. the lechmere stop keeps this car-free, and the river path is a nice cooldown loop when you’re done.
weather 🌤️
out the door, mostly sunny and seasonable. mid to upper 60s this afternoon, light breeze, low shower risk.
