    That's what I hear when fogbound. Perhaps Blue In Green (monochrome mix).

    Outside my house and down a few steps, this afternoon:

    Some good contenders there. Great to hear Desmond and Hall again, beautiful. Cooder & Bhatt is a classic, for sure.

    Well, you are all invited to stand with me by the bridge listening to cool music. See you there tomorrow, 7am! Fog is forecast.

    Horns in C#, eh? Very cool.

    How about Miles Davis-"Lift to the Scaffold?" Perfect for a moody fog.

    I heard Miles only in his Big Pants period, mid 1980's at Massey Hall. His band was killing and mid-concert they were playing one of those unlikely hits by Lauper or Jackson and Miles brought the house to a pause, a pregnant pause as I'd learned of when reading about his mastery and at that moment when time seemingly stopped, every listener holding their collective breath and finally released by Mr. Davis who in total control allowed us to all whoop with joy I saw genius.

    I hope you can hear it.

    Heck yeah, Miles it is. And he was in Paris when he wrote it.

    Another foggy day here, and the first time we've heard the fog horn. I'd be happy if it stayed like this all the time. Who needs big blue skies?!

    I've just bought a mini air horn for my bike, scary moment on a roundabout when an idiot decided to overtake me & turn left at speed.

    Couldn't figure out how the clamp worked so asked youtube & found this as well.

    Don't watch with headphones...



    Neighbours from hell.

    Miles' note would probably have been:
    "Time isn't the main thing.
    It's the only thing."






    Thick fog outside.
    Clearest thoughts inside.
    Boundary layer problems.

    I’m trying to imagine what your new house is like.

    Not quite like that! I've long-coveted such a house, though, one designed by Robert Louis Stevenson's family - that's what they did around Scottish shores.

    Doug B is right - that "Lift to the Scaffold" sound track is exactly what I have in mind.

    Fascinating to learn what people are hearing when fogbound!
    Fog triggers feelings of lonesomeness, but can also stimulate the imagination, as you have to imagine the surroundings more in your inner eye.

    Fogbound some would Miles probably hear like this:


    Mal Waldron would come to mind - one for the seagulls, certainly hidden somewhere in the fog:


    Or his daughter Mala Waldron, feeling left alone:
