Foggy Canterbury Sunday

 

Appropriate backdrop

This is pretty much how things look to me whenever I visit the Canterbury. But today was foggy for everybody on Capitol Hill. Kind of neat out there.

Here’s what the Internet sez causes our current fogginess: infrared cooling of a cloud-free, humid air mass at night can lead to fog formation – this is called “radiation fog”. Radiation fog is most common in the fall, when nights get longer, and land and water surfaces that have warmed up during the summer are still evaporating a lot of water into the atmosphere.

It’s not necessarily caused by whisky and soda.

Park was amazing.
Seeing a group of people doing tai chi emerge out of the fog made tai chi seem like the coolest thing ever . . . and that guy playing an alto (?) sax, who you’d hear before you’d see? Much fun. Hope more photos show up in the flickr pool, since I neglected to bring phone or camera.

We were there at the exact same time and really got a kick out of the tai chi guys and sax guy as well. It was fun seeing people, dogs, joggers appear out of nowhere. All we needed was a fog horn….
