The Many Faces of the CT River
The Many Faces of the CT River
River cleanup during the 2016-17 Earth Day Magnet Theme Day.
A view of the dock.
The river in wintertime.
Can you spot the eagle's nest?
Saying hello from the dock.
Michele Saulis is CTRA's magnet-theme coach. Her photography, inspired by a love of natural beauty, depicts the many faces of the Connecticut River from the banks of CTRA. In addition to nature, she seeks inspiration in music. Below are some of the lyrics from "Mighty River" by Mary J. Blige--a song that she finds particularly meaningful.
Life is a teacher, time is a healer
And I’m a believer like a river wild
Ego’s a killer, greed is a monster
But love is stronger, stronger than them all
White flag in hand, I don’t wanna fight
No lines in the sand, I’m on your side
Invisible, no color life
It’s time we put our, put our, put our differences aside
Time tells no lies
It keeps changing, and ticking, and moving, then passes by
But if you’re lucky, it will be kind
Like a river flowing through time
