Life List Update #92 - Carousels

"Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

I've always believed this quote. But since I created My Life List, the universe really seems to be conspiring.

#92 on the list is to photograph 10 carousels. I love them and thought that it would be cool to take pictures of a few. But I didn't think that things would start happening quite so fast.

My friend S and I decided to get together for lunch. We talked about a few places and I mentioned that I had always wanted to try The Living Room, which is close to the waterfront. She randomly mentioned that there is a carousel quite close on the Rose Kennedy Greenway. That decided it!

I'll write up a separate post about our meal, but here's the first of my carousel pictures. I love how there's so much greenery, the whimsy of a carousel, then all the office buildings in the background. The carousel is rather unexpected considering the surroundings.

This was my first time walking in this part of the Greenway since it was finished. It's really beautiful and I'll have to go back soon to take advantage of the space in this nice weather. They also have a number of interesting volunteer opportunities if anyone is looking.

Bye for now. I hope that the universe is conspiring for you too!
