I was home on Sunday, April 10th having finished some yard work when I noted some nice cumulus clouds overhead and pulled up the Boston Yacht Club webcam to see how they appeared over the harbor. I was surprised to find more than a dozen sailboats crossing the harbor and quickly made my way to Hammond Park where I captured the tech dinghies in front of Marblehead Light. Once the light shifted, I drove across the causeway and found this vantage point from Parker Lane.
It definitely felt as if spring was in the air with temperatures in the mid-50s and the sun shining in the breaks between clouds. I later learned this was the final frostbiting session for the Marblehead Tech Dinghy Association.
I’ll share more from this outing every day this week to help set the mood for springtime in Marblehead.
