2024 National Invitational Rowing Championship

As the semester finished, I traveled to support Trinity Rowing at the National Invitational Rowing Championship in Worcester, Massachusetts.

Unlike most other spectators, stationed down at the finish line, some coincidence and some bushwhacking led me to a position near the starting line. The benefit to this view was capturing the boats while they were still closely spaced, making for some really dramatic competitive compositions.

Spring Light Lasts Longest (on the Field)

Delicate, not-fully-chlorophyll’ed spring foliage may be bright on its own, but being the only objects still tall enough to catch the sunlight once Trinity’s Long Walk gets in the way really makes the campus’s trees stand out all the more.

Spring Light Highlights the Long Walk

Though a city might not seem like the most obvious place to celebrate Earth Day, I’ve honestly been astonished since my move to Hartford just how many big old trees shelter the city. Between the greenery and the public transportation, this place gives me some optimism.

Perfect, breezy, warm, and effulgent spring days have sprawled across Trinity’s campus, rather like students on the quad. Grading papers in my office can at least be softened by an open window and the resulting smell of flowers.
