Don’t have recommendations on where to find a car to do this (sorry, my car is not that forgiving and i already had to apologize to it when i let my partner learn on it 😅) but there’s some decent empty lots over in Watertown, I believe just beyond where the old Russo’s used to be. High key recommend finding empty lots to practice in bc you can go slow and it does not matter how often you stall out. Definitely also recommend watching some YouTube videos on how to do it, because they can be really useful!

I was here a few summers ago, and yes, this lake really is this color. It’s absolutely stunning, and in my mind, a hidden gem of the world. There’s a path you can walk around (most?) of the lake I THINK (my mom and I went around part of it, but had already been trekking for a number of days)- and it’s just as cold as it looks to swim in, but loads of fun!

Now THIS belongs in masshole parking of the day
