PONDERING CORE ESSENCE
NUMENON |
I have been looking at the Gano Street boat ramp on the Seekonk River at the head of Narragansett Bay in Providence, Rhode Island for at least six or eight years. I've long wanted the opportunity to launch and explore here; while it is within a handful of miles from my childhood home, things have changed for the better in so many ways. I thought it would be an interesting trip to share with my girls. Well, Sunday June 28, 2020 was my last logical chance; I was retrieving my youngest from her college digs for the last time. I'd offered her a local "cruise"; if it didn't happen this day, it was not going to happen for a while! Despite the threat of future thunderstorms, we launched at about 10 AM and decided to head down-river to the Bay. Just below the I-195 bridge, I noticed some nervous water and snagged my first Narragansett Bay bunker from a thick school in quite a while. Ultimately, we headed up the Providence River as far as we dared and got a different perspective of the city. Returning, we encountered some more bait just below the hurricane barrier, and my sand eel bait got chopped in half by a bluefish. I couldn't entice any others to bite, and we concluded our short cruise in time to be the traffic and storms home. Pondering the questions of core essence and finding meaning in unexpected ways
