At the Spaulding Dam Boat Launch



Regarding the above photo,
I don't know the name of this area,
but there appears to be some work being done on it.


The sailboat launch has received a lot of improvements.
A new sign, walking path and a concrete road.
Oddly enough, it didn't get a handrail for their boat dock.

This photo (above) is at the beach.
Now that's how to make a proper sandcastle!


These last three photos are at Marine Point.
Do take note of the water level.


These two photos (above and below) are of the Marine Point boat launch.
Now that is shallow water.
