The year 1981, the Raiders won the Superbowl, the Boston Celtics were the NBA Champion and I graduated Kolbe Cathedral High school. Well…..I did not march in the ceremony due some chocolate incident. Needless to say it has been 31 years since I left Bridgeport CT without looking back. I passed by to NY, MD but never visited.
I had the great pleasure this past weekend to revisit, there was a Beach Picnic Class Reunion. It was the beach, I could not pass that up, I have a love affair with the ocean, river or lake.
I had not seen any of my class mates over 30 yrs, and I was excited and nervous. I was the quiet one, always in the back and never got involved in much. I was a transfer student from Jamaica in 1979 and it took while for me to get adjusted. By the time I was getting up to speed it was graduation.

Relaxing Place After Work
I just sat here relaxed, listened to the fall and watched the ducks. I love the sound of the water fall.

A Walk along Vandenberg Esplanade, “The Boulevard”.
This was not planned ahead. My daughter found out at midnight she had to work early this morning. Hmm, I have to go along the boulevard to drop her off at work, I will take my camera, walk, then relax.
Nothing like an early morning stroll, not many people, and I can be alone with my thoughts.
Well there were a few people, still it was very relaxing!

Fort Hill Park
Things don’t always go according to plan…so adjust. My daughter told me I am weird, because I just went to the park and sat there by myself. Honestly, I enjoy those moments. No one bothers me, and I just sit observing, clearing my head.
I love this location on Rogers Street in Lowell, even though it is on a busy stretch of road, there is a sense of calm just sitting there.
There were others while I was there but I just sat there and enjoyed the view. Then the smell of rain and sounds of thunder urged me to move on. I could not leave before one last shot of the hovering rain clouds.
