Here's what Ference told the Boston Globe:

"It’s great, I miss the city obviously. Coming down, we got the Bruins, Sox, and the marathon in a couple days span so it’s been great."

[...]

"The whole vibe, the city’s been great the past few days. Everyone’s buzzing around, the weather’s nice. It’s perfect. This is what it’s all about, everybody’s coming together to try to turn the page and get on with things this year."

Ference is helping with recycling efforts. Go Green Team!
