Hoar frost is made by water droplets from dew that freezes. Rime ice is made by water droplets from fog that freezes. Both of them can make "black ice" on the roads that you cannot see.NCmountainwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00615765649828716560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-73833663351528993982011-10-21T22:00:45.003-04:002011-10-21T22:00:45.003-04:00That 3rd photo is very serene and tranquil and may...That 3rd photo is very serene and tranquil and maybe the doggies like that ambiance too.

I have worked very hard to be on the internet and have a blog and I think it has been well worth it to have friend like you!!! This typing everyday keeps my mind active and learning and when you are learning you are not dieing. Tom and I work at staying healthy and happy! WE never go out to eat b/c we want to control the amount of salt and sugar and fat in what we eat. That helps in staying healthy....<br />xx, Happy & Fernanimal lover, quilt loverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04601858320913048863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-72696557047777381002011-10-21T20:55:02.531-04:002011-10-21T20:55:02.531-04:00Love that rime ice - just wondering if it is the s...Love that rime ice - just wondering if it is the same as what we call hoar frost.

The dogs look so happy on their run up the dam.<br /><br />I hear it's getting colder there, but my iphone app is set for Raleigh and it says next week will actually be in the mid-70s! I guess it's a ways from Raleigh to where you are -- I'm trying to figure out what kind of clothes to bring! Ack! Layers, I'm guessing. Will get me by no matter where I am.<br /><br />Those fall colors are gorgeous, even though they may be fading. Still more than we Californians often get.

The golf course has closed down for the winter and it becomes a lovely open place for the dogs to chase ball. They had a great time and it really tires them out. The golf course is very hilly so we get our exercise too. We sat in the sun and soaked a while too, at the half way point. Let the dogs recover their breath! It is so great for them when they can run free.Cicero Singshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13438108795744902961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-42969538717375449192011-10-21T17:58:18.198-04:002011-10-21T17:58:18.198-04:00Such beautiful pictures.
