Though we postponed our flight today for several hours due to unwelcome Fog, when it cleared over land but hugged the shore, it was Fog that made this flight especially spectacular! Our delighted friend sat in front, so my photos were out the closed back window. Still I couldn’t help but take this foggy view of boats in the harbor.
0433 Foggy Harbor Boats
by ~Anne
Speaking of weather, rather than risk getting fogged in at Oceano we flew our dear friend along the shoreline to Montecito and fog was flirting with the shoreline. Unheard of for late August here, but these are unusual times it seems. Sure was beautiful, and maybe Anne will share some of the shots she got on the way out. I got these two coming back.
0975 Andree Clark Bird Refuge
I imagined the waterfowl hunkered down with their feathers fluffed up against the cool sea breeze. The recently famous Clark estate is disappearing into the fog at the top where Cabrillo bends and at the right you can see colorful shelters set up over tables for some event at the SB Zoo. Montecito Country Club is still in the sun at the bottom of this pic.
0981 Hidden Harbor
Santa Barbara Harbor is all but hidden in the fog, with the stadium at the picturesque SB City College still in the clear. It was a beautiful game of peek-a-boo flying along the coast, and we could see the fog moving inland and then vanishing just in from the beach. The airport was completely clear, and I kept one eye on it the whole time just in case. Such a beautiful flight.
