Looks about right. Pulling out of the driveway is an adventure these days with the 4 foot plus walls of snow.

I was born in Boston (which has plenty of hills) but now I live just beyond the Boston city limits and it's in what is called the Great Plain area which is a big freaking marshland (PC name = watershed) created by the Charles River (which circles the town on three sides). Even though this is inland from the ocean by about ten/fifteen miles my town is on a peninsula formed by the Charles River. There are three hills in my town. One just behind that picture I posted and the other two are on the other side of town. There used to be a fourth but that was leveled and the material was used to fill in Boston's back bay, which were tidal mud flats before that. Hills are scattered but mostly just small rises and troughs for terrain in this area. It's also a very 'wet' area as you can imagine.

The freakin' place looks like the training ground for Le Tour from April through October. My middle son is a pretty hard core bicyclist. He's done a couple of Ironmans (Lake Placid) and a couple of years ago he did the Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon. A lot of bikers around here. www.escapefromalcatraztriathlon.com/

Maybe it was the hills of Worcester.
