2020-12-21: Walked around the marsh for a short time in the morning.
2020-12-22: This time we walked all the way out to the railroad tracks. There was an island that maybe on a good visibility day you could see some penguins out there. Later, after dark, we saw the conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn.
