More towing on a wintery morning

Although it looks not so bad, the cloudbase was only about 200 feet first thing this morning. Then later on when it lifted to a meaningful height, the wind came up. 14 knots at West Beach according to the ATIS.

And one more for luck

Colder far than snow,
winter moonlight echoing on
my whitened hair.

Joso

More than half way through winter now...

Poor thin crescent,
shivering and twisted high
in the bitter dark.
