Be careful there be ships lurking in the fog!

Look what @kiro.dog did, got surprised with some amazing artwork. I suppose it’s time for an icon change.

Beautiful sunrise over the ship. This picture I took also made the company page.

Snow. Meanwhile I probably look ridiculous walking on deck wearing just overalls and a couple of shirts for layers. We do have tunnels below for times when the weather is bad or you just don’t feel like putting on a show.

On my way back getting the mail for the ship, had to stop in the middle of the lock gate and take a picture.

This wonderful piece of art by @stardustfox.bsky.social is meant to depict myself and the ship I work on. It turned out amazing. Having something pretty awesome to mark the occasion of my first time working onboard a ship.

Sometimes when you are working on the dock you get bored and snap a picture or two. Trying to fit the whole ship in the picture is a challenge.
Boat butt! The Stern of the Oberstar while loading at Sandusky. The tip of the propeller can be seen poking out of the water. The M/V Hon. James L. Oberstar in full view just before departing Toledo. This picture was taken while I waited to throw lines off. No longshoremen up here.

There is something more romantic about the sunrise and sunset viewed from a ship on the water. Even if it’s a ship that will never sail on the ocean.

7 o’clock, time for work. Here’s the view from the morning commute.
The sunrise in Duluth/Superior on November 6, 2025, as viewed from the deck of the ship I’m on. Duluth in the distance and an old cement carrier.

Some more shipboard photos of the weather today. We’re just sitting at anchor just outside the Superior side of the Soo.

Waking up at 4:30 for 5, which on ship means I got 30 minutes to get ready and head forward. that said I do have some time to check out the view, such as this one of Chicago.

Going thru the locks at Sault Ste. Marie. This was our upboard passage on Monday morning, so I caught the sunrise.
Looking aft towards the Saint Mary’s River, we have just locked up so we already left the lock or are in the process of. Looking forward as we proceed towards the International Bridge.

Fox face reveal. However I am starting my journey as a merchant mariner. For years I’ve talked about ships, a passionate hobby and interest may lead you to an amazing career. Don’t let others tell you otherwise, keep at it! You might end up being as excited as I am.

My den space has all its foxy stuff. Plushies, art, a lamp, blanket and more.
Bedroom with various fox themed artwork on the walls, a plush fox on the bed and a fox on display on the tablet. Fox lamp and a couple laminated things of art I got printed. They’re printed back to back so the opposite side has the other face. Fox door display, calendars and badges. All my plushies.

Also from @kiro.dog I got badges, I couldn’t decide on keeping one design because I liked them all. Each one had a glasses/non-glasses variant. Can’t wait to get them printed out for whatever I want to do.

When you said “Let’s go for a walk” I wasn’t expecting the leash and collar. Also I’m all fluffy now, yip?! It just takes some getting used to.

Just because I’m a fox doesn’t mean I can’t have the puppy energy.

Whimsical foxtaur!

Got this amazing traditional piece from @kashmere.bsky.social . It’s flat colored with markers.
