A walk along Swift River on Father’s Day 2016
One of the things I enjoy most is traveling through remote areas with my husband and sons. I get great joy from planning unique family vacations to beautiful places on a shoestring. These trips give me a chance to detach from routine and explore new worlds with my camera.
I love living in New England because there are so many beautiful places to visit that are within a short drive from our home in Bedford MA. My husband recently took up fly fishing and I accompanied him on one of his expeditions to the Swift River in Western Massachusetts. The Swift River flows out of the Quabbin Reservoir which provides water to Eastern Massachusetts. The river is “gin clear” and peaceful.
While my husband was fishing I walked along the banks of the river and was stunned by how I could clearly see brook and rainbow trout as they swam by.
