An interesting change has taken place within the view of my balcony. On the other side of the Ashley there is a point of land which is a tip between the river and the opening of Wappo Cut. At low tide you can see a sizable island off the tip that extends into the harbor. It has emerged only in the past few days and is not navigable at low tide. Different prevailing wind directions creates capes and this one tapers as it runs toward the east.
