Jeanine left for Burlington, VT, to stay with her sister, Susan, for the weekend. I was not able to join her because of my soccer game tomorrow. Instead, I decided to head down to the Seaport District to watch the Red Bull Cliff Diving competition, which is in Boston this weekend.

Pictured in this sequence is Gary Hunt, arguably the best cliff diver in the world, having won the Red Bull Cliff Diving Series 10 times. He is the current leader in this year’s series and was the winner of today’s event. Men dive from a specially constructed platform that is 90 feet from the water, and women from 70 feet. The athleticism and fearlessness of these competitors were amazing.

While I was near the ocean, I decided to drive down the coast with stops at the Flynn Cruiseport, Castle Island, the JFK Presidential Library, and the Scituate Lighthouse.
