gull-able

i have to account for the last trip before we leave on the next so including wildlife pictures from lake champlain, VT reminds me that i am the stranger on the water.

i'm glad they chained up this observer on the charles river (so no one would steal him). he was one of many sculptures adorning the banks of a rather classy river house.

the charles river canoe & kayak building at newton/auburndale, as seen from neighboring lily pads, was an easy access and the dammed up portion of the river made a leisurely, albeit misty, journey. a native american legend says that the water lily (nymphaea odorata) was once a star. it fell from the sky and, striking the water, it changed into a flower.
