Thanks! Fantastic photographs and information and this project is in my neck of the woods. My boy rows on this lake in the fall and spring for a high school crew team — and when I see these photographs and think of this project, I can’t help but think of people from the 1640s / 1680s on the Lake in their mishoons…on a glorious afternoon with the yellows and oranges of fall leaves reflecting in the water and around them as a warm breeze flows across them — just as those colors and that breeze surround my boy on the Lake.

Thanks for the information and photographs!
