I have been taking the commuter boat from Hingham to Boston since 1983. I am always describing my
great commute to people, and I finally decided to document it with photos. These were taken with my cellphone on several morning trips to Boston
(some sunny days, some not so sunny) and it gives you an idea of what I see each day on my 30-minute boat ride. Each boat has a galley
where passengers can get drinks and snacks, and after working all day it's especially nice to relax with a beer or a glass of wine on the way
home. The boat ride is generally a pretty gentle way to travel, but I have to admit at least one time we had a little unexpected turbulence!
I have another page, Boats in Boston Harbor,
with photos of some of the boats I see.
My thanks to Lynda Steverman of Boston Harbor Cruises for the photo of the swan family.

- I uploaded a CNN iReport containing a link to this page after reading an article about how high gas prices are affecting people's commutes.
