Assabet Arising

 

The newly elevated water level at the Egg Rock inscription told me an ascension of the Assabet River would be in the cards on the last Sunday morning of November.  The weatherman predicted "wall to wall" sunshine and delivered exactly that.

Worked my way upriver to Westvale in a slow and steady manner.  After turning about, the trip back down with the current was a breeze.
