It is not often when my iRobot duties include taking small children out for ice cream but this evening that is exactly what I did. As a result of the decision to consolidate our California offices in Pasadena we have two families visiting Bedford to explore the area and look at potential housing options should they elect to relocate here. I decided that plying their children with ice cream and bumper boats at Kimball Farm could only enhance the chances that they look favorably on a move to the Boston area. I enjoyed meeting both spouses and hope I will be seeing them again.
