November can be fickle with her weather. She seems to like to try on days that are a little gray now, a little sun later, more gray, more sun, very dark, very bright; relatively warm, relatively cold; sprinkles, downpours, and even moderate drought as we have now. But November’s fickleness can provide opportunities to see familiar things differently.

Above. you see Conary Cove under Monday’s wintry gray sky. As she always does, she’s allowing the cold, fast-rising tide to cover her. Below, you’ll see Naskeag Point on the next day under a cloud-scudded, sunny-blue wintry sky. She’s slowly disappearing, as she always does, under the same fast-rising tide that has become a day older.
