Lopresti and Deer Island Parks- Boston Area

Published

Yesterday I explored Lopresti and Deer Island Parks. Both are near Logon Airport but are amazingly quiet places to explore.  Lopresti Park is East of Boston, and you have great views of the skyline.  Deer Island Park has a huge wastewater treatment plant- LOL I felt at home!  For those of you that don’t know I’m a purchasing agent for a local government agency and my biggest internal customer of our wastewater treatment plants.  I didn’t know this until today after doing research for this post.  I was thankful the rain came in early allowing me to get these images and now the rain has come back in, so I was given a perfect window of opportunity.  It looks like the cooler weather is speeding up the fall color and I hope to post more images of fall tomorrow and later this week

Location: Jordan Minnesota area

Back road summer series continues, this weekend I drove around the Jordan Minnesota area capturing the agricultural landscapes.  The landscapes offered up simple calming views of the countryside lifestyle.  Crops were flourishing while we are experiencing a moderate drought, at least in the areas I was exploring.
