Lowell

there are so many things to do, see, and go!!!!
if you visit during the summer, make sure to get a canal tour! it sounds kinda hokey and all but it really is alot of fun!!!

I’d like to find someone I met back in university that hailed from Lowell. Not sure if he’s still in the area but from what I can remember his family owned a restaurant there. Never know, could luck out.

We came back to Lowell last weekend. There was an apartment for rent below the organic cafe!! So tempting. We stayed at a hotel, had a nice Italian dinner out, and visited Kerouac’s birthplace, memorial park, and grave. Took lots of photos. There is nothing like a quiet New England town in Autumn. It was rainy but peaceful. I heart Lowell.

We went last weekend but only had a few hours to spend. This weekend is the Kerouac festival… I so wish we would have been able to be there this weekend instead! We did have time to visit the Kerouac commemorative monument and a lovely organic cafe on Middle Street called Life Alive. Spent some time wandering around the cemetary (unsuccessfully) looking for Kerouac’s grave. We shall return soon!
