This morning I blogged about my foggy outlook on the outer world in A Very Foggy Merry Christmas Eve Morning.
A couple hours later my phone made its incoming text message noise.
The text message noise was coming from Spencer Jack and his dad, with the following message...
Thick fog, with ice and snow, here today too.
Along with the picture you see here.
The "too" part of this message is a bit erroneous, due to the fact that the fog I was trying to see through this morning contained no ice or snow.
In the picture it appears Spencer Jack is driving his dad north on the I-5 freeway, about to exit to Highway 20, in my old hometown of Burlington.
If it were not foggy, to the right, you would be seeing what would be called a "mountain" in Texas, but is just known as Burlington Hill in the Skagit Valley, a location from which one can see actual mountains no matter which direction one looks.
Speaking of fog (and who isn't?) the fog has now lifted at my location.
What you are looking at above is the same view from my computer room window we had a foggy out look from this morning, with the sky now clear, with no mountains to be seen.
Actually the dirt hill known as Mount Wichita is about two miles in the distance, to the right. Also known as to the southwest. However, Mount Wichita does not reach a high enough elevation to render it visible from two miles away.
