Fog
I drove from Bloss to Buffalo at some ridiculously early hour today. The fog was lifting from the mountains in neat well defined stripes. The first four shots are driving into a stripe behind a white car that gets lost in the fog.



Gone!

The dark edge at the top is another mountain behind some well defined fog.

Burned houses demolished
The three houses destroyed in the fire in Bloss @heidi #56570 have been demolished and the fourth is gutted for rehab.


Laundry
I set up the new wireless router today at Wendy's so I'm hanging on the back porch watching my laundry dry and surfing. Maybe I'll go for a little walk in the woods later. This is the longest stretch of unplanned time I've had in bloss in forever. It's lovely.
Last night I visited with my friends Hannah, Liz & Jennie at Liz' folks' place in the far northwestern region of Tioga County. It's in the same county as Bloss but it's over an hour's drive, 50-some miles. I got stuck in traffic! Unexpected at 11pm on a Saturday. The fireworks in Galeton let out the same time I left Liz' house. We made s'mores on the front lawn then it started to rain so we hung on the porch in candlelight. We could just barely hear the Galeton fireworks. Liz said that some nights she can hear her neighbors across the valley talk on their porch.

Conversation by candlelight.
