Streets, Shoes, and Stoops

I like to always have my camera with me in order to capture anything neat that I see on my daily walks around the city. 
I absolutely love the brick walk-ups all over Boston. How great would it be to have your own stoop? Sometimes I just stop and imagine myself living in one of these beautiful buildings. I snapped this picture because I loved the look of the street, but now I like it for a completely different reason. Did anyone else notice the tree full of shoes? I did not recognize that until I blew the photo up on my computer, but it makes me like this picture so much more.
I can't even explain to you how many cute bikes I have seen these past few weeks. It makes me awfully sad that I do not have one of my own. I don't think I have had my own bike since I fell off of one and broke my arm in second grade. All I can do is admire these beauties when I see them on the street.
Here is the beautiful Christian Scientist church. Although I am unfamiliar with this religion, the building is beyond beautiful. I like to go here and sit by the reflecting pool when I am overly stressed.
Coming from a small suburb, there are no such thing as street performers, vendors, or artists. I always enjoy seeing other peoples' creativity. The best is hearing fantastic music while you are walking down the city streets at night. 
Until next time, Mandy

  1. Boston looks lovely! I wish I had some beautiful buildings to explore within walking distance of my house. I live in the suburbs, but I guess an island has its beauties. I def want to visit Boston though! :D
