Assabet River
Photo Gallery


Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time прогулка по Москве-реке на речном трамвайчике. On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs.  I am haunted by waters.

Welcome to the OAR online photo gallery.  Here we have assembled numerous photographs of the river, the watershed, and the people, places and lives that the river runs through.  Enjoy, and visit again soon.
