Piping Plover

On our last day in Boston my sister-in-law was feeling well enough for a short stroll along the beach.  We came upon these Piping Plovers in between the gulls and crabs.

Another Trip

We made an emergency trip to Boston last week to help out with a ruptured appendix, or rather to help out with the stuff you can't do with a ruptured appendix.  This is probably my favorite of the five or six places my brother has lived since they moved to Boston.  The park is just down the block.  Walk a little further and you can follow a great path along the river.  It gets flatter as you near the river but the houses on my brother's block are stacked up behind each other in kind of a cool fashion. 

Random Photo from the Past: New England Aquarium

I guess I could almost call this series Random Aquarium Photos from the Past. Taking photos in aquariums is one of my favorite hobbies. The New England Aquarium in Boston is very nice. They had a fantastic exhibit of jellyfish when I was there.

Random Photo from the Past: Whale

This is something I really want to do again soon. Seeing these huge mammals rise from the ocean depths totally amazes me. We saw several mom and baby pairs. Although the babies were at least as big as the moms! They were very curious and several times swam towards and then under our boat to check us out.
