Morning Drive

I’m home again. We’ve added putting together a pre-fab TV stand that we bought a few weeks ago but we’re planning on returning to my to do list.

The traffic was nuts out there today. I failed on one of my errands, but completed the other, and I got to see mom on her birthday. The visit was a bit on the rough side, emotionally speaking, but I’m glad it happened.

Obligatory Methuen Center pics, both coming and going…

Inside the Masonic building?

Where To… Again?

I find myself asking this multiple times each weekend. If the weather is going to be good tomorrow around sunrise, where do my camera and I go?

Well, the weather is supposed to be good tomorrow so I’m asking yet again. Boston is the big beacon on the horizon, but I just don’t want to deal with parking and getting around town.

Maybe head back to Plum Island and hit a couple of the spots that I saw but didn’t stop at on Friday.

There’s a lighthouse in Gloucester. I think there might actually be two of them. It’s an hour drive, but if I’m on the road early enough it could be kinda cool. I don’t know.

There’s still the Concord River at Minuteman National Park. There’s another pond in Tewksbury and another river walk in Lowell.

I really don’t know what to do. What a weird feeling.

Quechee

We did what I always want to do but never do when driving up to Vermont. We stopped at Quechee Gorge!

I had a tough time dealing with the exposure settings on the DSLR. A lot of my shots look super under exposed. I switched to auto and those looked dark too. I guess it was the light conditions and not just me. Nice!

Lighthouse

No Boston photo walk tomorrow. Where to instead?

I was thinking of trying the ocean again after the bust last time. Then I did some Googling and found there is a lighthouse near Salisbury Beach. That’s something to think about, eh?

There are lighthouses in Gloucester and Portsmouth too, both less than an hour away from home. Those might be in play in the future, but Plum Island, near Salisbury is closest and I was thinking of being in the neighborhood anyway.

Very interesting.
