We noticed signs for the South End Garden Tour around the neighborhood and decided we were going this year. It was great that Gary’s mom was in town and the four of us enjoyed a beautiful day looking at all the gardens. The tour gave self-guided access to private or tucked away gardens throughout our neighborhood. There are some very pretty places that people have created in their tiny spaces. We really enjoyed it. And we loved that Daniel joined us afterwards for lunch!

Memorial Day Weekend Roofdeck Work
For Memorial Day Weekend we cleaned up our roofdeck. For obvious reasons, even after repotting all the plants, it didn’t take too long, so we had some time to enjoy it. Manhattan gets to hang out there with us because he obeys commands (oddly enough for a cat) and he loves lounging on the deck. He isn’t allowed past the iron fence, so he reaches his neck out to sniff past it or rest his chin on it. He is super good, even when birds hang out there just past the fence and bath in the puddles on the roof. Good cat!

Round 2 L – Celtics v Heat (90-98)
Fiallen Game 23
After watching Wade break Rondo previously, we no longer held out much hope for our postseason, but we were prepared to go and be a part of a good Garden crowd one last time this season. Turns out, we almost stole one more game from the Heat we had no reason winning. But by the final minutes, the Celtics had the loss, and we knew we had probably seen our last game this year – and maybe for two years if the NBA and the Players Association can’t sort out their issues.
Also, Arroyo doesn’t understand Celtic ways. At halftime, during a playoff game, he was over chatting it up with his old teammates and shooting hoops on their side, warming up with them! Unbelievable. Ray Allen finally pulled him away – I only wish it was KG who corralled him. Unbelievable. Video of that below. I honestly couldn’t believe my eyes.
We have new seats next season (whenever that will be), but we really enjoyed Section 330, seats 9 and 10 – especially our neighbors! Go Celtics!
