    Waterspout Rainbow : Winter Harbor 2022
    By morning, the wind has swung around 180 degrees out of the north, and blowing hard. Within hours it goes from almost still to gusting over 40mph. Wind driven tides rush in through the northern inlet and pile up against the now close southern end, submerging the dock again.

    Full Moon with Eclipse : Winter Harbor 2022
    The slick ca'm carries through sunset, moonrise, and late into the evening. Perfect for a bonfire on the beach to welcome the lunar eclipse.

    The boardwalk over the marsh points almost due west like a compass rose. From the end, there's a broad view over the marsh in every dire

    The Water is Wide
    We saw where the sand ended up; we want to see where it came from – the North end.

    The dock is wet and slippery. Tonight is a the fullest of Full Moons, the night of an eclipse, so tides are especially high. Water lapped the bottoms of the kayaks on top of the pier where I tied them down to pylons. By early afternoon,

    An Inlet is a Beach : Winter Harbor 2022
    Gear and groceries stowed, we headed south to see what weather hath wrought in our absence. It's a short paddle to follow the old channel around to the inlet, or at least what used to be the inlet.

    Amazing to think that within my lifetime, steamers could enter through this in
