On Winthrop Waters

by RhondaRuth - last update: Feb 28, 2005

The other side of Cottage Hill

Deer Island in early Spring

Take a drive down Rt 145 taking a right at the stop sign. Past Cottage Hill and Winthrop Yacht Club and down through Point Shirley. You will came to Deer Island. Park your car and take a leisurely 2.6 mile walk around the Island on their Public Access paths. You'll see some fantastic views! And don't forget to walk to the top of one of the hills, sit a spell ... look at the views and relax ... for a change.

Revere Beach from Winthrop

Docking at the Winthrop Elks Club

My favorite time is during the Summer when the boats a either moored or out on the water. I sure love watching the sailboats. Now if only we could get invited out on one ... well a BIG one!

Sailing on Winthrop Waters

Looks as smooth as a lake doesn't it? But it's beautiful Boston Harbor from Winthrop, by the Sea.

The Swans of Winthrop

For the second year in a row, the swan pair have dome back to Winthrop and Lewis Lake to raise another family. Tonight they stopped in our backyard to say "Hi, have any food for us?"

Small plane coming in for a landing at Logan.

Don't see a double rainbow every day for sure. This one was beautiful and lasted a long time.

Winter Sunset

Tall Ship leaving Boston Harbor

The Tall Ships came into Boston Harbor the summer of 2000. I had hoped to get wonderful pictures from the beach when they where leaving, but loh, it turned out to be a foggy day and couldn't see anything, let alone take pictures. This was the only one I got two days before. Ah, the sailing ships are a beautiful site!

 I tried to get to here, but ran out of time last year. It looks like a great place to see the sites and the sea. Thank you for the tour.

 Beautiful page on Winthrop! Funny enough, I actually have been to Winthrop, Wasthington which too is a pretty unknown place! I was in Boston area once a few years ago and I truly adored it. I'd love to visit again!
