#BostonWeekend 27/27
Monday morning has come round again. A good weekend for birds, some say.

I hope you're in good health and spirits - It is not too late to resume wearing a mask when indoors with people, flu is going around, bird flu is scary, and <20% of eligible MA residents are fully vax'ed for covid.

If you're new, welcome - I do a weekly thread of greater #Boston area events, if you find it useful, tell your non-mastodon friends about it - its the kind of thing we do here to build community. Boosting helps get the message out.
see you with more thread again Friday - cheers #massachusetts
