Our trip to Mt. Hood this summer put us behind on our boating summer activities this year. It has been a late start and we haven’t got out on the Connecticut River as much as we would like, but the times we have been out there have been amazing, relaxing and memorable. I love photography on the water. Everything just seems to pop! I am sharing all boat adventure photos below taken in the past month and love everyone of these shots. Hope you do too!
Old and New
This is our boat on the right (new – less than 3 years) next to another Moomba that is an older model. We have met the couple that own that boat and they are water skiers too. It is a fun place to be in the summer, with other people that enjoy playing on the water like we do. We had to pull her out of the water to prepare for Hurricane / Tropical Storm Irene and she got to spend some quality time with her old “friend” the Mobius. 🙂
Night Photography
Schuyler loves to play on the boat — his smile and “dance” are fun to watch! This late trip with the Challenger coaches proved to get some cool night photos. 🙂
Music
The quiet of the docks without all the boat — the quiet before the storm — I can hear the “music” when there is no noise, no people, no action — soothing beauty – the music of the river. Hurricane / Tropical Storm Irene is looming and all the boats are off the water and put to rest in order to get the docks out before craziness hits!

Cheesy
Schuyler being cheesy, refusing to say “cheese”, but actually giving me a great shot of him — being CHEESY. Hanging out on the boat with his friend Chris.
