The river, so busy with boats, and with the tide streaming in, still looks peaceful and calm just after the sun has set. The lights of the town turn the sky pink above them, as the boats bob slowly against the quickly darkening sky. I especially love the red reflection from the light on top of the bridge as it twinkles against the water.

Flat, grey and heavy, with no trace of the day’s earlier sun. It’s all too easy in Boston to forget one is near the sea, with the prevailing winds coming in from across the continent. But occasionally a thick heavy mist will roll off the sea and cool the city down at least 30 degrees in just minutes. Wonderful, but leading you shivering back inside nonetheless.
