Exercise idea
In bad weather, a different option would be walking at an indoor location - museums or such. But I think I prefer the idea of trying to get outside instead.

Or we could just pick things we want to do/see, and then decide if the distance is worth it. I think I want to walk the Freedom Trail this year (haven't since I was a kid, and I'm pretty sure it wasn't the whole thing then), but not alone. Any ideas?
How does this sound, at Blue Hills?

Bigfoot Stomp: A Snowshoe Hike
1 pm
Call 617-698-1802 x212 for registration and meeting place. Did you just get a new pair of snowshoes or looking to get a set? Join a DCR Ranger and an REI Outdoor School Instructor for a guided romp through the Blue Hills. We’ll provide the tips and tricks to getting around in the deep stuff. REI will also have a limited number of adult size snowshoes to loan. No experience is necessary! 1.5 hours
I thought a planned hike like this might be better because they have loaner snowshoes (I may check JobLot to see if they still have cheap ones, or look into renting them from REI or buying used, but they can be pricey so I like the idea of loaners just for the afternoon!)
We could to lunch before, or a cup of coffee afterwards, if you guys want.
