Visit to the Connecticut River in search of the ice jams!?

Sunday we took a ride east to the Connecticut River thinking we were going to see
some real ice jams and the Coast Guard ice breaker working! We got spoofed. Our
news folks were touting ice in Haddam on the river! Hmmmmmm
We did catch a few chunks floating by and were caught behind the ramp/dock.
Anyhow, it was a beautiful sunny day with temperature in the 40's.
Pictures were taken with the Nikon D7200 using the scene mode. The lense was
the Nikon 18-105mm, 1.3.5-5.6 G ED.
I included some links to the Goodspeed Opera House and the Connecticut River.
Enjoy

Thanks Vinny. Yes I recall. When that took place I was recovering from back
surgery and was upset I couldn't get over there. I'll keep watching!
