Fog is cool.

I drove home from Seattle late Saturday night / early Sunday morning and there was fog so thick that it was a bit unnerving at times. I was driving quickly down roads I knew, but where there weren't streetlights I could barely see what was ahead of me. If I didn't know the roads quite well, or if it weren't for the lights of other cars and intersection street lights that I knew to look for I would have driven much, much slower.
There's something about fog that changes the whole world and makes it seem magical and mystical. Sometimes it can be scary I suppose, but usually I find it thrilling.
That said, when it's cold and the fog freezes to your car window, it creates a layer of ice that is much more difficult to scrape off. That was my problem this morning. ^_^
The fog hardly burned off all day. Even at 11 AM when I went to lunch it was quite foggy out, and by nightime the fog descended again quickly. It was weird at work, because you could look down the dock and in the distance see mist -- right inside our building.
