Bag of Bubbles

 


Kind of a fickle week around these parts.  On Sunday afternoon I approached Egg Rock in Concord, MA (above photo) under moody skies and warm temperatures.

Checked the Egg Rock inscription which showed decent water levels...

...before veering right and ascending the Assabet River.

On Thursday good water levels were also found on the  Nashua River in Lancaster, MA where this bend-maker imposed its will on me and the river...


The days between paddles ran the gamut from warm rainy days and wind to downright cold days with mornings temperatures in the mid 20's F. 

Trash found in the Assabet River included this tightly-packed plastic bag of bubble wrap...

Sunday's roundup with bubbles unleashed...


The Nashua River's trash was plucked from the trash traps at the river's many sharp bends...where the trash is laid out conveniently...


Thursday's haul included 71 "nip" bottles and a half dozen cigarette lighters...


Fittingly, for a fickle week, a white dusting of snow covered lawns and cars this morning.
