Recognize the profile? The gulls swarmed as harbingers, like those that preceded Moby’s rise from the depths? Doubleclick enlarges.
She comes in like a discriminating predator, leaving Patuxent and Brownsville to continue on their various ways. I do wonder if any crew on those vessels got any fotos.
As she passes Swinburne and Hoffman, her anchor dangles at the ready, like a claw.
She inches into the deepwater to
settle in and lie in wait. That’s Stephen passing far on the east side of the channel.
Let’s hope things go faster than they did six months back.
All fotos by Will Van Dorp. More soon.

Are we going to see a late December Groundhog Day series? “I tell you. That’s not normal procedure.”
