Fog

If you can’t get out of the fog, get into it.

That’s just what I did this morning as I set out for my daily walk. Living on the east side of Cape Breton Island, fog is something that we must just accept as it comes in from the cool Atlantic Ocean and usually hangs around for days or even weeks.  So as I head out, instead of snapping pictures of shimmering white seagulls in the blue sky or the awesome scenic view that we are blessed with, I’m out there looking around and appreciating the closer surroundings blending into a soft background.

As I’m writing this post, the sun is now trying to break through the dissipating fog…. Come on sun!

 

This morning's walk

For this morning's walk, at least the wind wasn't too brisk, just a soft breeze which was a little cool. On the way back it started to drizzle a bit, but with just a light spring jacket, it was still a pleasant stroll up Chapel Cove Rd. It's always a nice walk, either it being a bright and sunny day or a foggy day when you can smell the ocean in the air. I'm hoping we'll see the sun later on, maybe by the end of the week?
