Memorial Day weekend on the the River is the official start to summer and boating season.
This weekend , we remember the brave men and woman who gave everything so we could enjoy moments on the river in freedom.

May we never forget the true meaning of Memorial Day.
Honor them today and every day……..

The marina was magical today with the peregrine falcon flying overhead and the Osprey busy doing its thing. How lucky am I to witness and photograph moments like this?

I try to take it in every second because you never know if we will ever have another Osprey or falcon nest calling the Lacon Bridge home again.

Once the captain finished work, we headed to Chillicothe by boat. Between Lacon and chilli on the river we saw 4 active eagle nest.

It’s always a good day when you see an eagle……..
See ya on the river

Ps….check out the falcon photo ……c clamp left on the bridge. lol
