Coming Soon!

 
Welcome to the middle of Middlesex! We're north of Framingham but south of Lowell, where we recently spent some time. Because we finished up in North Billerica in the northeastern part of the county with the last group, we're going to start on the eastern side of this group, moving from eastern central Middlesex County (Wilmington and Burlington), then doing a little zig-zag through Acton and Concord (yes, that Concord), and finally finishing up in Maynard, Stow, and Hudson to the southwest of that area. This is a very suburban area, almost bordering on rural in parts, despite its proximity to bigger cities. Relatively large expanses of forest (for eastern Massachusetts, of course) and other natural areas separate this region from the bigger cities, and these are all small towns. Another landmark of note in this area is the Hanscom Air Force Base just outside Burlington. It actually has its own supermarket, the Hanscom Commissary, which being a military facility I don't have access to... although I'm working on it. We'll be seeing a few stores in each town and while we won't see every single supermarket in this area, we definitely will see quite a few. There's a fun assortment of big-chain stores and independents with some truly unique places, so I'm excited to get started! Tomorrow is a fun little independent in Wilmington. Come back to check it out!
