Always beautiful images. And your description of foggy days, so different from our Northern California heat and clear skies reminds me that we live in change. Changing climate, changing politics. And Poet Carl Sandburg’s simple poem, FOG, my students easily memorized, and had a name for the changing weather, the quiet fog that only hides what’s right in front of us.

FOG by Carl Sandburg

The fog comes

on little cat feet.

It sits looking

over harbor and city

in silent haunches

and then moves on.

Prof. Heather:

I will swap you for the rain. I can offer you at least 110 degrees and sunny days every day. Care to swap???

Lovely! In parts of SoCal we have also been experiencing overcast mornings. I love it, keeps us cool. We are expecting a heatwave later in the week.

Robbed of summer? If so, sad. They’re all the more precious in places normally with short ones.

Great photo, lousy summer. My boat (in Maine) feels deeply neglected.
