Neighboring town photos for October - the
    Mill River in Blackstone. Here it its about
    halfway between the point where it leaves
    Hopedale and where it arrives at the
    Blackstone River in Woonsocket. Click here
    to see where it disappears underground for
    about a quarter-mile before it gets to the
    Blackstone.

    Well, this obviously isn' t Hopedale. I saw it in the parking
    lot at Green Airport and couldn't resist getting a picture. If
    you'd like to see much more on it, here it is on YouTube.

    This one is a little out of Hopedale also. Fiske Mill Road. A gentleman
    was standing by the road waving to cars to warn them and give this
    guy (or girl, maybe?) a chance to get to the other side alive.

Hopedale Pond - October 21

    I was paddling downstream on Hopedale Pond during a bit of rain on October 22 when
    I heard some honking and saw these geese going over me. They were heading in the
    other direction and doing their usual, but rather amazing job of keeping in formation.

And back to the pond one more time - October 27.
