Just, uh, don't get into the habit of trying to do this every December? Please?
I'm pretty sure this is the acorn that was already starting to put out a root when I picked it up from between two bricks on the patio.

Just in time for Deercember and coincidentally coinciding with our first snow of the season, Anthemis the doe ventures out to explore the new winter landscape.

Year 3. I'm keeping the pots indoors this year because they inevitably get eaten outside, but I don't know what effect it will have long-term if they are in climate-controlled warmth over winter instead of natural weather conditions.
But! An oak has sprouted! These pictures were taken 2 days apart.

And of course no visit to Delaware Bay can be complete without a horseshoe crab. :3

1. Tanker /Stolt Virtue/ is also yellow (perhaps more ochre), leaving for New York. Tug /Skipjack/, on the right, has just arrived with its barges from New York.
2. Four-named tug /Barbara Carol Ann Mo/ and her barges are going to Louisiana.

Wow, /Dole Inca/ certainly is yellow. Based on the name and coming from Guatemala, I'm guessing refrigerated containers of fresh produce.

/Asphalt Sonata/ feels like a ridiculous name; there's not much glamor inherent in a bitumen tanker. But according to her builder, she is the largest ship of her kind in the world (or one of the largest; lost in translation?). Magnificent!

LPG tanker /Myklebust/ passed by yesterday, looking very fetching in red.

Two days after arriving from Maine, /BBC Pluto/ is departing for Florida. Bon voyage! And welcome container ship /Quetzal/! How is Guatemala?

/Scorpius/! That's quite a name for a container ship.
Is the owner a Bond villain, with a secret lab in the hold?

Also there's a wildlife refuge right behind the house.
Here's a bald eagle on the beach.
I don't know his name or where he's going.

We're doing something different for Thanksgiving this year, at a different beach. We have a nice view of a major shipping lane, which I genuinely enjoy.
Here's the oil tanker /Alaskan Explorer/ at anchor.
Also have seen the /Silver Breeze/ headed for Morocco, and the /Del Monte Rose/ for Costa Rica.

This is an excellent hook for a horror movie.

I like the alien cars that are clearly inspired by real identifiable cars. The 1958 Pontiac Bonneville is a unique choice by the animators that I appreciated.

In this shot from the "Roofman" trailer the BMW i8 (2012 concept car), Porsche 918 Spyder (2013), and Jeep Wrangler JK (2007) are all wrong.
