May 28th 2026: Hiking in Lincoln and Horses in Lexington

 Today, we started out in the town of Lincoln, getting a bite from Twisted Tree Cafe,



getting the Golden Turmeric Latte (Oat milk blended with turmeric, spices and a light touch of honey), the Matcha Tea Latte (Locally sourced MEM Tea matcha with your choice of steamed milk, lightly sweetened),

and the Curry Chicken Salad Sandwich (fresh chicken salad with celery, cashews, green onion, cilantro, dried cranberries, and a yellow curry aioli, topped with arugula on a braided seeded roll).

Good combination of flavors in the sandwich.

From here, I went to Drumlin Farm Wildlife Sanctuary in town to check out the viewpoints I missed the last time I was here. The path I took this time around is shown below in pink.

Nice views from the various viewpoints, although a little disorienting in the fields.





From here, I headed into Lexington,
Lexington Arts and Crafts Society


stumbling onto the horses from Riding Through History.
Lexie the Artful Equine

Inn at Hastings Park

Peace, Love and Music

Landmarks

Illumi-neigh-ted

Ed-Broidery

Call to Arms
Later in the day, dinner was at Brown Rice Thai Cuisine in West Boylston,
this time getting the Coconut Curry Mussels (mussels simmered in light red curry coconut milk sauce, fresh basil, French toast),
the See You in Kale (a healthy combination of pad see-u and the super green vegetable kale stir fried and seasoned with light sauce, egg and tofu),

and the Sweet Thai Dessert Sampler (Thong Yip (pinched egg yolk), Thong Yod (golden egg yolk drops), Foy Thong (golden egg yolk threads) and Coconut Custard).

The dessert tasted a little off because of the strong rose flavor, but otherwise not a bad meal at all. With that, an end to an eventful day of hiking in Lincoln and Horses in Lexington.

May 27th 2026: A Quick Hike at the Cold Harbor Trail, Northborough

 Today, I went on a quick hike to find a water body in the Cold Harbor Trail area of Northborough, where the path I took form Oak Avenue near Increase Ward Drive is shown below in pink.


Nothing special here though.

May 25th 2026: Hiking in Framingham after Eating in Allston

 Today, we were in Boston checking out the Institute of Contemporary Art where admission was free this Memorial Day. After leaving, we decided to have lunch at Novo Marketplace



a new food court in the Allston area, first getting a Build Your Own Pho (beef ball) from Lumi Roll and Bowl,

then the Bowl (Biryani Rice (aromatic long-grain basmati rice with saffron milk, fried onions and whole spices), Butter Chicken (marinated, skewered chicken in a tomato and fenugreek sauce with butter and cream), Garlic Naan) from Tabla Express. Pretty good Indian food.
Next, we got the Coco Cotti
and the Egg Puff with Strawberry Ice Cream and Oreo Pieces


from Cotti Coffee.
Finally, we got the Handroll-Torched Flight (Torched salmon (seared salmon topped scallion, chili), Torched yellowtail (seared Yellowtail topped spices), Torched Toro (torched toro, scallion garnish and truffle oil) from Mi-Nori.

Really good sushi, although the plastic covering for the seaweed took a while to figure out how to remove without dropping the sushi itself.

From here, we headed into Framingham
Barbieri Elementary School
for a hike across Farm Pond Park,







where there is a berm across the pond


dead ending in an old pump house.

lots of people fishing here today.

Our final stop for the day was at the Playa Bowls location in town,

getting the refreshing Goldie Mango (Playa mango topped with granola, banana, strawberry and nutella).
Not too bad for a day which started out with a ton of rain.
