River Shannon

The image above is the River Shannon located in Ireland. It separates the West of Ireland from the wast and south. It is the largest river in Ireland. I have visited it multiple times during my yearly visits to Ireland. I would take walks along with my grandparents and uncles. It allows for many activities including fishing and kayaking. It is definitely a beautiful sight to see if you ever visit Ireland.

Ramapo River

This is a picture from the Ramapo River that is 30 miles long. It flows in souther New York and northern New Jersey. It flows from Rockland County to Ramapo, New York then to and Bergen County, New Jersey, where I experience it. This river is very popular for trout fishing. In this picture, the river is somewhat narrow, but at other parts, the river widens and that is where fly fishing is the most popular. The Ramapo River was originally inhabited by the Lenape tribe.  Still today, some tribes are still located by the river and use its resources.

The Hudson from Bear Mountain

I took this photo from a scenic lookout on Bear Mountain. There is a beautiful drive from the Bear Mountain Bridge to the town of Peekskill, which you can see in the distance. On nice days I’ve seen many people bring their cars out on this stretch of road along the river, certainly a pleasant way of spending a day off.
