Sea smoke

The meteorologists call this fog/mist/whatever "sea smoke." I think that's a bit pretentious and dramatic. This is what the Saranac River looks like at -20, at 7:00 in the morning. It's what I saw on my way to work this morning. I feel really lucky that I get to see things like this on random days. Yes, I got out of the car to take the picture. Yes, I walked around my yard at -20 to feed the birds and admire the morning. I much prefer the cold to snow. I think it's amazing when it's this cold, the world is a different place. Last night, at -9 it was dead quiet, not a single sound. I'm hoping tonight, when it's supposed to be even colder, the ice will talk to me.
