You aren't too far from me... I live/work in Waltham, and my beloved dog lives in Lowell (with my ex - long story, but I lived in Lowell for a while too).
Anyway, get ready for the Walk From Obesity that takes place with Lowell General Hospital in the fall, so we WILL be coming to you eventually. :)
