| Bill in the stern |
The rain held off, and I got out for a quick
paddle with Bill Luther on the Bungay River in Attleboro. The Bungay is a tributary of the Ten Mile River. It arises in Foxborough, and flows
south about 7 miles until it joins the Ten Mile River in Attleboro.
We put in at the Bungay River Conservation Area (88-160 Holden Street, Attleboro) and paddled upstream into a beautiful red maple swamp. There were lots of flowers in bloom, and plenty of painted turtles sunning themselves on the banks. The river twists and turns, which was a bit of a challenge in Bill’s 18’ canoe, but we were up for the challenge. We made it upstream about 2 miles before turning back. Nice trip.
