It's a grand view and a wonderful place. I must say, I have <b>NEVER</b> seen that little orange-billed seabirdy, on either side of the river! We must find out who he is! Way cool!!

Sometimes, I walk to Eastern Point. Other times, I weave my way through the rich history of the Fort neighborhood. To the uninitiated, Groton is Hamburger Mile and the Subase. But the quiet beauty of the City of Groton is another matter altogether, isn't it?
