Up the Lazy River

From the balcony of a friend’s apartment in Putnam. This is the Quinebaug River. To the right just out of sight of the lens is Cargill Falls, which when the river is higher is thunderous and gorgeous. Right now it’s little more than a trickle due to our drought. But across the river is Simonzi Park and Kennedy Drive. This section of the river is perfect for canoeing and kayaking especially for beginners and is part of the Last Green Valley National Heritage Corridor.

 

The flowers in the river are in memory of Steve Bousquet, an active member of the community who actively supported the development of Simonzi Park.
