Explanation.

My name is Andrue Coombes, and I live in the State of Massachusetts. There are 298 towns and 53 cities in Massachusetts. It's my goal to visit each and every one of these places, take a picture of myself with the "Entering ___" sign, and interact with both the social and physical geography of the area. In this blog, I will write a story about my visit to each place, and things I did there, as well as post pictures and other things of interest. Hopefully I will complete this within the next few years, and everyone can notice how beautiful things can be in their own state if they just get out of and experience them! Good luck on all of your travels!

TURNER'S FALLS!



Now I know that Turner's falls isn't actually a town, its a village in the town of Montague. I couldn't find the sign to Montague when I was passing through it, but I did see the wonderous and giant sight that is Turner's Falls. The little downtown area leading up to the falls was very quaint and friendly. Walking over towards where the falls are is quite the adventure. There was a smaller steel bridge over a very high flowing canal that was channeled off from the Connecticut River. My family and I crossed the canal to view the falls from the banks of the river. They were very large looking from where I was, with what looked to be a hydroelectric plant settled underneath. There was a giant steel structure in between the falls that looked to me like a giant robot holding up the water. If you ever get a chance to stop by this, take a look! It's quite amazing!
