My World ~ Foggy, Dewy, Morning


Life has been crazy for me since my computer became infected last week. Windows didn’t work and my backups failed to restore. I am able to restore data files manually, and that’s something to be grateful about.

I woke the other morning to a foggy day. Dew covered the lawn. With my morning coffee in hand I stepped onto the front deck to see and feel the day. (That certainly would be better than battling the computer. Right?


I stepped out and looked back over the house at the sun, which was obscured by the haze. Our Amateur Radio antenna tower appears in the photo. I use the big antenna at the top for my activities. Sylvia uses the wire antenna that is supported by the horizontal boom that extends from the tower. Above that there is a box with a rod extending up from it. That is the radio that connects us to our high-speed wireless Internet service provider. The rod is an antenna that connects some of our neighbors to the Internet. (I’m late posting this today, because I was working with our ISP on
changes to his Website .)


Then I walked to the edge of the deck and looked out on the yard. Dew revealed the presence of myriad spider webs that normally remain invisible to my eyes. I love those moments. The world is different. It looks different and it sounds different. It’s magic!


Here is a closeup of one of the webs. I lingered for several minutes as I enjoyed the view. In the distance the sounds of traffic on the expressway (a mile and a half away) could be heard. This only happens on “special” days. All too soon, I went back in the house to enter once again into the computer battles.

  1. Hi Chuck, Happy WW! mine haven't posted yet.. always late me.. whew!
    By the way, the cab webs are quiet cool to see! very natural photo!

  2. Aren't those spider webs cool? I forget what kind of spider does that, but the ones down here are little and red.

    Justine 😮 )

  3. I'm having my own battle with my computer and Blogspot. I lost most of my photos. *sob*

  4. Those are some cool looking webs. I have never seen webs on the grass. Look's like those creatures were mighty busy while you were sleeping.

  5. Ah, looking at all that beauty you realize how unimportant the rest of it is. Technology is a pain, isn't it?! Good luck getting it back in order.

  6. I drove by that area last night. There was a lot of fog earlier in the morning in the northern part of the state as well. I drove back up north today.

    Beautiful photos, and I also love when nature shows you things you might not have otherwise have seen.

    Thanks for sharing.

  7. We are very grateful for your antenna and the connection it provides to the outside world!

    Looks like we have three kittens. Momma wasn't impressed with room service so you will probably see her today.
