I just love how the fog simplifies everything. If I were to take this same image on a clear day, you would of seen buildings, the Potomac River, and who knows what else. The fog cleared everything else out and left a beautiful backdrop to highlight these beautiful willow tree branches. Seriously, in love.
What’s the first thing you do when you wake up? Me, I check my emails, check my social media accounts, and the weather all while I’m still in bed. I feel like it kinda wakes me up before I actually have to get up. So when I saw that there was fog Christmas morning, I immediately got up.
I’m starting to really enjoy the fog. I dunno, it’s like you’re walking through this really warm cloud and who wouldn’t want to walk through a really warm cloud? This day was really different though. Not because it was Christmas but because it was SUPER foggy. I couldn’t even see the Washington Monument while I was driving into the city and that thing is huge!
After walking around for 30 minutes the fog slowly started lifting the monuments started coming into view. Love how unique this perspective turned out and grateful it turned out to be a white Christmas after all 🙂
The last time I was at the Grand Canyon I was caught in the middle of a huge rainstorm. We spent most of the day trapped in the visitor center with about 50 other people. Not really the type of adventure I had anticipated but as soon as the rain stopped this beautiful fog rolled through the canyon. It made the Grand Canyon look so small because hardly anything was visible.
Since the Kutz Bridge is STILLLL under construction and you can’t walk on it, I found a spot to stand next to it 🙂
Three Things I’m grateful for this week:
1. Some sunny days after so many rainy days.
2. Finished reading The Untethered Soul and now onto Big Magic. Both great reads so far 🙂
3. I’ve been feeling sick this week so I’m glad it’s the weekend and I can get some rest
That 4 days of rain, foggy sunsety red glow thou! Praise hands emoticon!
I picked up a new hobby over the weekend! Actually it’s something I’ve been thinking about for a while now. I’m going to learn how to skateboard 🙂 I had so much fun wakeboarding over the summer but I was not good. Pretty bad actually. But it was a total BLAST. I figured skateboarding could help me get better at it.
So I was over at my brother’s house (like I am every weekend) and noticed my nephews had skatebaords. I asked if I could try and my nephew, Brennan told me that “Skateboarding is sooo 90s”. I told him that I didn’t care and I was going to do it anyways! It was so much fun. Towards the end I was getting too excited by my progress that I fell and hit my elbow and head pretty hard. I just rolled up my sleeves and tried again.
After I left I immediately purchased a skateboard (and helmet) that should be arriving tonight! So excited. More updates on my need for speed soon…
