how interesting, thank you
i wasnt seeing it that way at all
incidentally -- and it may be obvious to you, but it takes people by
surprise sometimes -- the mist there can be pretty total
i am never forget coming out of a boarding house at lizard town and
finding an italian guy there saying _we have come as far south as possible
and this! this!_
you couldnt see beyond a car's length
and i explained it might go on for a day or two and the best thing would
be to drive north!!
you could watch a mist come in from the east across st ives bay
i once saw rain run north across the firth of tay the same, like a wall
running at you
forgive me, I am sure you have mist in canada
