Mean Tide?

I think you're right about slack and stand, and ebb and flood would work but it's usually just a glimpse when I drive over a bridge that makes me think about it, so I don't know which way it's going.
I grew up on the coast, so I never really thought about tides just that that was the way it was. Then I married someone from a landlocked country and every time we drive over the bridge over the cove near our house I comment when the tide is high or low since they are used to lakes, and I'm never quite sure what to say when it's in the middle.
As good a selection as any

I've killed a couple up here in CT, but now that I know they eat grapevines, which make a run at choking everything in my garden out , I'm having second thoughts.
It's a bit "old lady who swallowed a fly" but if they develop a taste for bittersweet...
I'm a simple man, I hear a trombone solo - I up vote.
Thanks, I hadn't heard these guys before.
Graaak!
I love Blue Jays too, but their song aren't exactly melodic.
Egrets, I've had a few, but then again, too few to mention.
Arent the Galpagos amazing? We saw a newborn baby seal from about 2 meters, Albatross mating dances, and boobies, boobies, boobies (mostly blue footed)
I'm going back for New Year's, can't wait.
Thanks for the amazing foto.
Please excuse it's dirty, dull, and scratched state.
It doesn't look like much, but the unique opening motion where you push and pull the right scale will stump your friends.
Not pocket EDC for me, it's really heavy, and the jimping is too sharp. Also, I hated the pocket clip, it rides too high for my taste, cut up my jeans, and the opening got caught on everything I walked near.
It makes a great car knife though. Easy to open with gloves on, big enough to be easy to find in the cup holder, and great to fidget with.
Both directly under the ceiling fan though.
(optional)Toss tofu cubes in corn starch and spices, fry, set aside.
In a large pan, Stir fry vegetables (carrots, onions, bell pepper, bamboo shoots, zucchini, chili to taste,) and some green (or red or something else, I'm not the boss of you) curry paste until they get a little wok hay.
Add some water and soy sauce to deglaze, then add one can of coconut milk, one can of pumpkin puree, one glob of creamy peanut butter and some more curry paste, simmer until vegetables are almost done.
Add tofu cubes (pro-tip put the block of tofu on a cutting board in the sink, put another cutting board on top, then put a couple of cans on top of that. Let drain for at least 15 minutes.) and simmer to warm through.
Serve over rice.
En guete!

1st generation leftovers.
Leftover ribs fried rice- cooked and cooled rice, diced pork, frozen vegetables thawed, basil, sambal badjek, pineapple chunks, fish sauce, 2 eggs beaten, soy sauce, other ingredients to taste. Fry.
2nd generation leftovers.
Nasi Goreng a la Bule - put fried rice in bowl, add a splash of water, crack eggs on top of rice, cover, microwave using the reheat 5 setting in my microwave plus one minute on 100% for a beautifully runny yolk. Top with fish sauce and hot sauce of choice, shown with Pick-a-Peppa because "someone" used the last of the sambal in the fried rice.
Never liked the way half-tide sounded, I think I'm liking Mean-Tide, or Median-Tide if I'm feeling fancy.
