No Parking


The above is a photograph of Memorial Drive in Cambridge.  You can see the Boston skyline in the distance.  I drove on it today and for the first time in years noticed that there was no longer any parking on the Drive near MIT.  In the 1950s and 1960s there was parking there.  Most of the parking was at night as it became a "lover's lane" after dark.  Lots of good memories of those days.

I wonder where the 21st century lovers go.  I also wonder whether the Catholic Church approved of the change, as I suspect that today's lovers can "go further" as the action is probably no longer in a car.
