Hashtag college days

A universally understood challenge of college life is how and when to obtain clean laundry.  Today, Cas and I made that happen.  We took all of our dirty clothes from the trip so far to a spot on Prince Street and used a fistful of quarters to make everything usable for a second time.  It’s really a brilliant way to travel- just pack a carry on, then do a little wash on the journey.  You end up meeting local folks, and you carry less of your stuff around the world.  

After that, we headed back to the hotel to put everything back in its place, and then we were off for a little walk. Following that, we went to a spot called Legal Seafood for a dink ahead of our reservation. We were slated to meet up with Matt (or Mattty), Cas’ college friend who lives near Boston.  I hadn’t met him in person, so it was a first meeting or me, but certainly, Matt and Cas shared lots of good and/or fuzzy memories.  

After dinner, Matt went back home, and Cas went with me to the Bell in Hand for a quick, last-night-in-Boston beer.  Mission accomplished.  College behaviors, college pals and college-style staying out for a beer- except that it is currently pretty early by college standards.  Hey, we’re not 27 anymore, are we?  Nevertheless, we’re being as wild and crazy as is reasonable in this circumstance, and certainly, we were all super reasonable in college.  And who doesn’t love clean laundry?
