Before work, tour of the Little Magothy. Cold, frost on ground, changed to knit hat! But sunny, beautiful morning with slight west breeze, still worked up a sweat. No cormorants, no ducks, no geese, but compliment of Great Blue Heron - they are all staying in trees near water, not hunting as when it was warmer - I guess Winter is here...

Before work, tour of the Little Magothy. A bit cold, a little wind, mostly cloudy, a little rain, and some sun. No cormorants, almost no ducks, some geese, a bunch of Great Blue Heron - not sure if that's all because of the storm. I really didn't think today would be a good day but it was a great way to start the last month.

WRCRA Frostbite race. Borrowed John Baker's A-Cat for an extra WRCRA Frostbite race (The Annual Turkey Buzzard Race) in Galesvile out of WRSC. Great start but hit the start pin with the tiller extension, did my circle and was much behind. Good race, got on the wire, great day out of what the forecast initially had as being very light.
