Revere Beach

One of Boston's most ill-reputed neighborhoods, this was my home for over three years. Sure wasn't pretty, but it was close to the subway and the airport, and within waking distance of the ocean. It has a great sidewalk where I used to walk or bike while breathing in the ocean breeze, and a wide sandy beach. We used to have some great "brew-fests" at my place there with my old roomate Steve -biochemist and brewmaster extraordinaire- and the old gang. OK, so what if you heard a gun shot now and then in the middle of the night? Small price to pay... :-)
