Better Days

I just re-named the boat in the foreground.

Dysart Harbour is the kind of place where the locals spend a lot of time fixing up boats which are past their best.

Emmalisa (left background) was in that category a couple years ago. She went back into the water last spring, looking great. For some reason she was taken out of the water earlier this summer.

The harbour was wonderful this afternoon. Warm, with a light breeze. The smell of seaweed. The sounds of lapping water, the waves breaking on the other side of the west pier, and lanyards rattling against masts. Or are they halyards?

A seal even popped up for a few moments, to scout out its surroundings.
