I had such a nice walk on the bike path before work this morning! The sense of it kept coming back to me during the day.
The flowering cherry photo is from that walk, as are the sculptures on flagpoles that I never noticed before. I am also sharing an amble down a Boston alley near the Oyster House, a cod racing an owl on the carousel, and two rabbits pursued by an owl, a butterfly, and some kind of sea serpent that can never catch up.
I have a new Greenway photo I’ll call Heat Rising: from every new angle, the Echelman sculpture surprises.
Finally, I can tell you that the wonderfully artsy pipe resting against my neighbor’s fence is now buried under the street.








Beautiful shots!
I like your photos, too, Jayde-Ashe.
It is wonderful to follow you on your walk; nature and urban mix.
Thanks for saying that. I sometimes wonder if people get tired of my walkabout pics. I keep going over the same ground
I haven’t seen the carousel in person yet–but it looks so great! Nice collection of photos!
When you get back to Boston, you will see the Echelman veils over one end of the Greenway and, at the other end, the carousel. They seem to be leaving the carousel up in winter, which is probably why the rabbits are a bit dinged.
Two notes: Carl Safina writes briefly about the seed bank in his fabulous book The View from Lazy Point. When you return to your favorite island, you will be able to do a walkabout to view newly installed Poetry Boxes.
Thanks! You always have such good book suggestions. (And I can’t wait to see the poetry boxes.)
Love that last photo especially–the hole through which blinding white light is pouring.
It was amazing to have giant pipes like that deposited near the house and then to come home one day and find they had all been buried.
