Members explore the city on foot

A small but dedicated group of CAH members have been walking together, twice a month for the last two years. Walks have ranged in type from the historic like the Battle Road Trail in Lincoln, to convenient and familiar like Fresh Pond, to a little more creative like retracing Obama’s steps as a student in Cambridge. A few weeks ago one of our members along with a friend from Beacon Hill Village’s walking group joined forces to show us around the South End. Arguably our most beautiful walk, we passed by thriving vegetable gardens, beautiful parks and quaint neighborhoods. We also recently explored the great works of art found on the MIT campus making sure to stop inside to view pieces like the brightly colored floor by Sol Lewitt. Like last year, we plan to continue walking throughout the winter. For now, we are soaking up the fall weather and enjoying the spectacularly colored trees!
