December 24th - A Different Kind Of White Christmas

The fog came in early this morning.
Everything was blanketed in a different kind of white.
I don't mind.
It's the closest thing to a White Christmas we're likely to have.
It beats the sunny and warm we've mostly had these last few years.
Somehow I much prefer a coat and scarf to t-shirt and shorts for holiday wear.

This evening starts our Christmas celebration.
It's quite literally a twenty-four hour Christmas.
We go from my sister's, to Cathi's dad's, then her sister's for the night and Christmas morning,
then back to my sister's for the balance of the day and Christmas dinner.
I won't get back to check in and post on PAD till very late tomorrow night.

To all my PAD friends and other PAD'rs, Merry Christmas!

Wonderful shot. I know the exact spot. Very well composed and love the famous "tule" Bakerfield fog white-out. Have a great Christmas. Vote.

a lovely, simple composition which focuses the mind on the mysterious woman,
on what she's doing there, what she's thinking etc.
Have a great Christmas celebration Todd!
