Foggy Doggy Day

It was a bright sunny day until we reached the beach and then there was a thick sea fog rolling in off the water. It is hard to tell in the photos but trust us - it was like pea soup! Visibility was down to about 150 feet. It didn't stop us from enjoying our walkies as who needs to see when there is so much to sniff. Mom was a bit disappointed though as we kept hearing ships horns blowing as they were entering or leaving the river but we couldn't see them so no photos of the boats today. On the way back to the car we did notice this cool halo effect and it actually had all the color of the rainbow in it. The sun was  behind Mom when she took this picture so this was the light reflecting through the fog that created it.

  4. So glad you got to go to the beach, even though it was foggy. I well remember the damp chill it can give one but you both have your heavy coats to keep you warm. WE have snow here today so are just staying inside.
    Happy Tuesday.

  10. I think the sea fog makes for interesting photos..though I suppose you guys don't care about photos so much as sniffings. Say hello to your folks for us! And happy bark day to your mom tomorrow!

  11. Wow! What a nice rainbow. Yesterday we saw a sun dog in the clouds. That's when the sun hits ice crystals in the clouds and it looks like a little chip of a rainbow. Check out the first sunset picture in our post from yesterday on The Daily Bone.

  12. In Aberdeen the fog that rolls in from the sea is called the 'haar'. It forms usually in spring and summer when warm, moisture containing air from the land hits the cooler temperatures near the sea and so the moisture condenses.
    Oh. Gail says you probably weren't looking for a science lesson…
