Winter is my favorite time of year to ride along Baxter Boulevard in the city. The roadway, named after
James P. Baxter, a former mayor, wraps around the west side of
Back Cove. When the fog rolls in or it's storming, the gray canvas sky provides a startling background. This view looks out towards
Tukey's Bridge and 295 in the distance. During my high school years, we lived just off the roadway and up a hill a ways. This was a common scene out a large second floor window seat. Growing up near here, many summer days were spent bike riding the pathways along the banks. This, of course, was years before the city added the recreational pathways that are now populated daily with bikers, joggers and walkers, but not this morning.
Nicely done cold winter image.
