Another Foggy Morning

I was going to get away from a weather report, but this morning the sunrise behind the fog inspired me to take photos.

It was daylight as I finished cleaning the barn, but still foggy. Sheep are off the pasture now because it’s so wet, so they were waiting to be fed.

When you sit down for a meal at home do you always sit in the same place? Probably. These sheep are always at the back part of the barn because that is where they want to eat. And Zora always puts her feet up on the feeder to eat out of the top.

This is the barn from the back. There was a prompt on the phone to clean my lens. I think the phone objected to the fog.

The ram pen is just behind where I was standing for that last shot. This is Starthist Hornblower, sire of many of the lambs to be born in February and March.

More Fog – Add Yellow

A screenshot from Instagram show yesterday shows our weather.

Our farm is at the edge of the Central Valley, sort of where that arrow points. To put this in perspective, realize that the white band on the right is the Sierra’s (not much snow yet). The left side is the Pacific Ocean and where the fog narrows and goes to the left–that’s going between the hills and ends up over the SF Bay.

Read the details above. To those of you who live where it is really cold it probably sounds like I am whining. Is cold different when you can see sun part of the day? Or sit in a sunny window? There was not even a glimpse of sun the last couple of days.

So let’s add some color!
