For the past 4 or 5 days, I have been in a fog. Of course, I'm not the only one in a fog around here, because the entire area has been under a thick blanket of fog!
Fog tends to happen quite a bit in the wintertime here. I remember last winter that we had several days of dense fog and the trend continues. Usually, it's not too bad and will clear up around midday, but sometimes it will last from dawn until dusk without a reprieve! That's the way it's been lately around here. The other day, even the airport was closed due to the extreme fog!

I was able to get out on Saturday for a little while despite the fog. I took a walk out to the cemetery in Signa, which is about a 15 minute or so walk from where I'm staying.

The cemetery was extra eerie with all the fog. I always notice how quiet cemeteries are, but with this heavy fog, it seemed extra silent. At one point a flock of birds flew overhead and I could hear - quiet loudly - the sound of their flapping wings.
I did get some neat pictures out of the visit, though!
