One fine day

While we're in the grip of Arctic conditions with warnings of more snow and ice to come, lets not forget  what it's like when the sun breaks through on a clear crisp winter's day. The sort of day when you need to grab your coat, get out and make the most of it, blow away the cobwebs, a day which lifts the spirits.

Even late morning the sun is low in the sky casting a warm light over the low tide  mud.

Down in the marina a couple of gaffers which looked to have come in for the winter. The black one is a Colin Archer type, double ended, broad of beam, a serious, go anywhere cruising boat.

Oh well, back to shovelling snow, got to get the drive clear or we can't get the car out.
