Another Foggy Night

We had gotten both kids to bed the other night, and my wife I decided to spend a relaxing evening catching up on some TV shows. We had gotten all nice and cozy when one of the dogs let out a vile and noxious fart. One of those disgusting ones that threatened to strip the paint off the walls and to wake up the sleeping children. I rushed the dogs to the backyard, and saw that it was another foggy night outside. So I grabbed the camera gear and headed out into the fresh air to try to take a few more pictures.

I love taking pictures in the fog, so the dog passing gas was very fortuitous (or fartuitous?). The city was cloaked in a thick blanket of fog. I drove downtown and was a little surprised that you couldn't see the state capitol from I-630. Not just the building itself, but even the bright Christmas lights were hidden by the fog. I drove closer and they barely managed to appear out of the gloom, like a mirage slowly revealing itself.

It was pretty quiet out there that night, and not much traffic on the roads. I guess most people had the good sense to stay home.

I couldn't stay out too late since I had work early the next morning, but got one last shot of the Pulaski County Courthouse. Thankfully the dog had cleared out whatever nasties were plaguing her by the time I got home.
