The fall run appears to be dwindling to a trickle, just in time for the first flakes of snow to reach the New England earth. But even while I type this, I’m checking tide stage and wind direction for tomorrow in one last foray into the back bays to search out late fall run stragglers […]

Well this has been an eventful few weeks, to say the least. We’re livin’ and breathin’ the fall run over here in Seven Stripes land!
