The water normally flows only on the far right-hand side on those
trees. Awesome to watch; hell to be caught up in, I'm sure.


Is that where I think it is, damn ain't mommy nature impressive?


I'm not sure. The Swift is running normal because of the controlled
flow: http://tinyurl.com/7kj88 You can see the spikes when they let the
water out of the Quabbin.
The Wa http://tinyurl.com/8qq3v
and the Quaboag: http://tinyurl.com/dpx7h
are running very high and join the Swift at Three Rivers (who thought of
THAT name?) to form the Chicopee: http://tinyurl.com/9myux
The photo was taken at a place called "Red Bridge". For those who like
Google Earth or other such toys, I was standing at about 42 deg. 10'
39.53"N and 72 deg. 24' 33.37W looking west. On Google Earth, that land
mass that looks like a left-hand mitten is in the center of my photo.
