We woke up this morning to find mist so dense we couldn’t see beyond the big walnut tree. There was a chill to the air at 8am, welcome after the string of +40 degree days we’ve been having. Everything was silent, as if we were wrapped in cotton wool, insulated in our little valley from the outside world. The birds were quiet too. We stood outside in the cool, unsure how long it will last.The answer was one hour. By 9am, the mist was already burning off. 5 to remember
