There were no swans out on the pond, probably because people were there — boating. It’s the first time I’ve seen people on the pond. I’m sure it confused the swans almost as much as it confused me. There is a small boat launch area and always has been, but I’ve never seen a boater on the pond. Maybe I just missed it.
I was trying to think of a place to go and realized it’s been a long time since we visited River Bend Farm. It’s one of the many parks along the Blackstone River, part of the Historic Corridor in which we live.
Being Father’s Day and perfect weather — as good as weather can be — we had plenty of company. Families including as many as four generations and lots of dogs.
A fine day. It’s our reward for surviving the long winter.

The swans are probably at their summer place on the Vineyard.

It’s a gorgeous place. Finally, they are letting people use the river for canoeing and kayaking which is great. Who knows? Maybe even swimming some day!

A perfect outing for Father’s Day. It was raining here in Western Washington. I went shopping for an upcoming trip to Maui. It should be nice there.
