Thunder Bay – Thursday

Not sure what happened here. Someone got some markers.  Did not want them.  Left them. Nothing happening out there. Overcast, fog warm.  No sunrise to photograph this morning.

Thunder Bay – Wednesday – Orthodox Christmas Day

Overcast morning. Warm temps.  No rush to get to the waterfront. Not going to see the sun this morning.
