Fog rolls in

Colonial Lake, Charleston, S.C.
It's been an odd weather day in the lowcountry. Foggy, warm and humid this morning and then thundershowers this evening. Still better than the cold the rest of the country is experiencing so I am not complaining. Check out below - our solitary attempt at a high rise, the Francis Marion Hotel is fading into the mist.

It was the right day to make white bean chicken chili in the crock-pot and watch a movie. I had Little Miss Sunshine recorded but for some reason the sounds wasn't synched with the picture so the right words came from the wrong person which gave an odd effect to the entire movie but I couldn't turn it off.

Very atmospheric, Joan. Listening to a mistimed movie? Not for me.

I love fog pictures!

I've seen Little Miss Sunshine a few times - great movie. The white bean chicken chili sounds good, too!

I love fog pictures too. Lately I've been lazy and missed opportunities in the mornings.

Joan,
Love the photos! Thanks, because I stop by every day to see what you have posted!

I do love a good fog... makes me think of men in long coats and fedoras, a cigarette hanging off a pair of bright red lips, a sly look from the corner of an eye, a black line running up the back of a pair of silk stockings.

Misty shots work beautifully, as these do.

I've seen the occasional channel on television where the audio's not synced up with the movie. It is weird.

And since you're down in the Carolinas, I'll assume that hotel is named for the Francis Marion of the revolution.
