Night descends on Boston's Seaport. People roam the district, saunter, eat, drink, and enjoy the waterfront, including our parade. The following day, Sunday, August 29, 2021, Hurricane Ida, one of the most powerful hurricanes since 1858, rocks the Louisiana coast. It rages north, strikes Rhode Island and coastal New York state. In NYC people drown in their basements, subways flood and stop running. In the NE at least 48 people die. Boston is largely spared, for now.
