Day at the Marina

Everyone's preparing for the cold months!  Many people are winterizing and shrink-wrapping their boats, which is quite a long process.

A typical day at the marina: 

Early in the morning a fishing boat passes by [with tons of seagulls swarming it!]

Taking a nap...

When a tanker enters the harbor you see at least one helicopter hovering above.  

The State Police were out in force while the Blue Angles were flying 2000 ft. over Boston Harbor on Thursday! 

Ruby loves watching all the "action" at the marina!

A massive tanker exits the harbor as the sun sets...

Stormy Weather

It certainly is stormy weather!  


Pictures of a stormy day! 

Sunrise.  No rain...yet!
And the fog rolls in...
Fog + Rain! 
Ruby does not want to go outside...
Still not sure why the Boston Fire Department visited the marina! 
Not a fan of the rain...

Sunrise, Sunset

This morning I woke up at 6:30 - exactly the same time that the sun was rising!  A large tanker quietly passed by just as the sun was peaking through the buildings on the other side of the harbor.  Very peaceful for being such a large ship.
