Note for future me: I'm writing all of this in mid-November because I feel bad about not writing a thing during my VA trip.
Back in Boston, went to Medford and met PK etc. Finally saw the Green Line go all the way to our old neighborhood and that was surreal, to see something that had been promised for so long that we'd stopped believing it entirely, happen finally. I will not claim to foresee the changes it'll bring around there, the economics or the sociological impact of the green line extension to the area, but man, the area is not going to be the Medford I'd lived all those years in.
Which is good, for the area, but another stake in our relationship...the town and me, it's not the same, it'll have become something else entirely.
