Trudy, you can easily walk from Haynes to Fenway in like 20 minutes or less. I've walked it lots of times.
(It took 20 minutes in snow/ice conditions.)
The money was too good. I got stupid.

It's a nice, flat, sidewalk-ed route? My on-the-mend feet still have me a bit wary.

What do we think a taxi from South Street Station to House of Blues/Fenway Park would cost me?
I'd say in the $20 realm, but it's been a long time since I took a cab in Boston so it might be more. The T would be cheaper, but it would involve switching trains at Park Street (Red to Green; Green to Hynes stop, or Green to Prudential, which is connected to the Hynes, if you get on an E train instead of B, C or D). Time of day will determine how long either take, but if it's anywhere near rush hour they're both going to take a while.

No major hills, and there are sidewalks. I don't know if there's any construction going on around there though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, South Station to Fenway is probably $20 in a cab, and almost definitely worthwhile with a gimpy foot and luggage and whatever. (The bus and T aren't that close together, if that's how you're getting into town.)
Hynes to Fenway is less than a mile, and should be an easy walk. Or a cheap ($6?) cab.

others are reporting that Rush's words were sarcastic.
I refuse to listen to his voice or catch sight of his visage - I will not be demonically possessed this week.

Then we can have fun quoting him out of context. GOOSE MEET GANDER.
Re: Boston Peeps
Sweet. Thanks. I'll have a small bag so I'll likely bus to T to T to feet it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I listened to a couple minutes of Rush. Sounds like sarcasm to me. So no, Hell didn't freeze over. Ah well.

Jesse - thanks for the kick-ass. I'm not sure if that will work, but I'll try it. My "matchmaking" interview is in 40 minutes and I'm a bundle of nerves.
