It was sunshine and a very decent amount of open water this paddler received for Christmas. Aside from the iced-over approach to the Egg Rock inscription, the main channels of the Assabet, Sudbury, and Concord Rivers were running free.
I headed down the Concord noting some bridge repairs underway at Lowell Road...
...drifted under the Old North Bridge...
...where a breeze out of the northwest was getting busy, and after paddling under Monument Street, continued down through Great Meadows.
It wasn't until I'd paddled beyond Davis Hill and reached the long straightaway that open water ended rather abruptly...
On my way back upriver I encountered a beaver blissfully enjoying his Christmas Dinner...
...before looking ready to sing...
...but not a peep was heard.
A small Christmas haul...
