Weekend in Westfield

As I mentioned in my post yesterday, two of my friends from LSU, Matt and Tim, came into Boston yesterday to visit. We spent the day taking in some of the sights, as I'm still trying to learn the city and Tim had never visited the city before. One of the places we went was the TD Banknorth Garden again, as Tim wanted to get his brother a Celtics Glen "Big Baby" Davis jersey, since Davis played at LSU. Well, the Celtics and Bruins share the arena store, so I saw some items from the Bruins-Hurricanes series that just ended. Turns out, all the items from that series were marked down to 99 cents, so I picked up 2 lapel pins and 2 hockey pucks with the series logo on it. Not a bad find for a 'Canes fan, and I'm sure no Bruins fan would want them. We did a few other things around the city, and after riding the T back to my part of town, we left the city and drove out to Westfield, MA, where Matt lives with his family. We had a fun night playing pool and watching the movie "Taken", and I also enjoyed getting out of the city for a little while. After breakfast this morning we decided to go to Six Flags New England for a few hours where we rode a few roller coasters and other rides. In all it's been a good day so far. I think we're going to eat lunch/dinner here pretty soon and then head back to Boston this evening, where we'll be going to the Boston Cannons-Long Island Lizards lacrosse game at Harvard University. Should be a fun night. I guess that's it for now. Thanks for reading!
