This is not today's sky

This was taken last Easter week at Mt. Rainier National Park.

Fog!
Dreary Fog!
Dismal dreary Fog!
Dismal dreary winter's Fog
which chills the toes and nose
and reaches its freeze deep into the bones.
Such a chill as strikes the psyche!
Such a chill and weary Fog!
Such a winter's Fog!
Dreary Fog!
Fog!

I've not been around to visit much. I have a project needing to be finished tomorrow. I am taking a class. I have chucked my chair out, as sitting in it at my computer has wreaked havoc on my joints--specifically my hip. I cannot sit, but in a straight backed firm dining chair it is becoming possible to do so for short bits. I have to move around--it caters well to my own brand of hyperactivity. It does not lend itself to skywatching. Nor does the fog.

Most monumental looking cliff you have there. Your foggy poem was brilliant in it´s diamond shaped symmetry.

We've had fog also but it is gone by 10:00 AM. . .

Rainier is always a perfect shot! I got more photos of Mt. Hood today. . .

Hope you get to feeling better really soon. I can't imagine you not walking around the outdoors!

Neat title - and why should you use today's sky? My SWF is about a week old, but I'll use a two year old picture if that is what I want - I'm not going to tell it either if that suits me.

Nice poem, both, literally and figurative.

I have a special chair/stool where you rest the fore-side of your legs on a special leg-rest. Very nice to use for a couple of hours when the back acts up.

Looks great, but snow at Easter ?

It's a beauty whatever day.

great shots, love how you composed your post, with the shape of words about FOG too.

I understand and I hope that being active as you say, helps solve your problems...
