Our topics:

1. Love Boston, had a nice weekend seeing friends.
2. We stayed at #PorterSquareHotel, a wonderful hotel, thanks to manager Curtis Butcher.
3. Our two other suggestions in Boston: #LenoxHotel and #charlesmarkhotel. Both on Boylston are fun stays.
4. Breakfast dives: Andy’s (near Harvard).
5. Today, we went to Kelly’s Diner, which is two train cars from Delaware, moved in 1996, and it is a wonderful dive breakfast place.
6. Saw the world’s finest bartender, Jefferson, this weekend. Jefferson ran the #Charlesmark bar for 15 years until the hotel owners changed the bar into a restaurant.
7. My place to eat and work, #CityTable, at the #LenoxHotel, the staff is thoughtful and fun, and the food is fantastic. Wifi is great, and the coffee is very good.
8. If I was running a hotel, the #LenoxHotel would be the standard.
