Hi, Steve-o, that picture of the fog has such an eerie stillness to it. It's great that you were able to get such a rare shot, I love it.

Thanks, Steve-o! What a gorgeous evening it was to stroll around and take pictures.
The picture of the fog that you took on the farm in Elburn has such an eerie stillness to it. What a rare shot!

Thanks!
And yes, it was a gorgeous weekend. Er, heck, its been an incredible MONTH! Id even say its been an incredible summer, minus a handful of crappy days. Overall I give this summer an A- so far.

Steve-o, I have to agree, this summer has been beautiful. Minus all the flooding we dealt with in early June. It has been on the cool side for the most part with a few warm/muggy days... You can't beat midwestern summers!  It looks like it may be a tad warm this week then cooling down again this weekend.

I have some pictures of Galena I'll have to share with you guys!
Just as soon as I load em onto the computer...
It's such a beautiful town with so many cool historical buildings and a great downtown, too! Plus, it's in one of the most beautiful parts of Illinois.
