CAL

Expand full comment

I’m a job monogamous, in that I’ve only had two career jobs since graduating from Cal in 04. I am applying for a new job and am feeling a bit nervous as I haven’t put together a resume or seen my old college transcripts since June 2011.

what up, bitches! Back from the extravaganza. General observations about New England

Everyone in NE is on the Maine coast right now. eff that place til October

Why is it illegal to bring fire wood from out of state?

Why does everyone want "clean" fill?

Loved Portsmouth NH and York Harbor ME

The drive in western Maine sucks...gets pretty in Bethel and Northern NH and Vermont is spectacular

I dig Burlington VT. Randomly had amazing Turkish food there, 2nd best meal on the trip

Loved our sailing trip on Lake Champlain

Connecticut is ok but kind of dull. As a local put it when I asked if locals go to Yale (we were in New Haven briefly) "Connecitcut is boring so if you can get into Yale, why wouldn't you go to Princeton or Stanford (sic) and enjoy something different?" Seemed accurate to me

Did a boat tour of the Thimble Islands on the Connecticut coast though- awesome, totally worth it

Cape Cod barely has any sand dunes! Its all trees and you cant see shit when driving. I liked Orleans and Chatham though. Provincetown was ridiculously crowded but our whale watching tour there was awesome. 16 humpbacks up close during the trip and a lot more in the distance

Food generally underwhelming. Mrs FS had 1 lobster roll for $33 and said eff that the rest of the trip. We thought this most of the meals we had

overall, we enjoyed the trip but its no Alaska or Ireland that we HAVE to go back to
