Frankly there's not much happening this week so it might be a good time to highlight some local attractions instead of specific events. Everyone knows about Fall Foliage but Early Spring is also a good time to go hiking in New England. The remaining snow is beautiful and you can walk as fast as you want without sweating in the cool air. Just bring solid boots because all that beautiful melting snow creates puddles. Some good local places to go hiking near Boston are below.
