Through the Fog

Until we moved to California my experience with fog consisted of the odd morning in the spring or fall when the fog rolled in and swirled it's way through the trees Jackson Park.

Well here it's called a Marine Layer instead of fog and it's a whole different experience that comes in almost daily right now.

Mike and I decided to go for a drive down the coast on Sunday since it was such a beautiful day. About halfway to our destination we saw what looked like smoke rising above the trees up ahead. Moments later we were totally engulfed in a thick layer of fog. It also dropped the temperature significantly. On our way back we realized it was moving north so the majority of the coast was now covered. You couldn't even see the ocean anymore. It was kind of creepy, especially since we didn't expect it.

This is what I deal with on a daily basis right now. The fog rolls in at some point during the night and hangs around until about noon the next day. It's horrible on my sinuses!

Here are a couple of pictures that we took on the weekend. The ocean is out there somewhere...
