Frozen Beach 1 comment
I got a taste of what it must feel like to cross the Arctic ice when I walked across the frozen bay of our little town beach (for 2 minutes). The tides caused much of the ice to break in unusual formations, as seen in the second picture.
Clinton Harbor 1 comment
Located in Long Island Sound, Clinton Harbor provides a serene place to keep your boat ( I decided to post a picture that doesn’t feature snow and ice.)

Mayflower II, Like a Fish Out of Water Leave a comment
The Mayflower replica, usually moored in Plymouth, MA, is currently at the Mystic Seaport shipyard, the only shipyard on the Eastern Seaboard qualified to restore antique ships like this one. It’ll be there for the next 6 winters, with the goal to have the restoration completed in time for the 400th anniversary of Plymouth in 2020.

Not a blacksmith with occult powers, but one located in Mystic Seaport, Connecticut.
Although the rays of sunlight did give this location a somewhat divine feel.
