Cut me off

So I'm walking out of a bar here in Salem, Ore. at 2:30 a.m., and I look down the road. I figured I must have been pretty drunk because everything was fuzzy down the street. But no, it wasn't because of a state of inebriation, it was a different phenomenon. Fog.

What the fuck? Fog? In June? When the hell is summer supposed to arrive?

OK, so I know some parts of the country are susceptible to fog this time of year. Southern California was not immune. There is a phenomenon known as June Gloom in Los Angeles this time of year, but I never had to deal with that in Palm Springs or anywhere else I live in California. OK, so when I live in the San Joaquin Valley we just to get what was known as Tule Fog in the winter. But this is virtually the first day of summer.

No wonder the bar was so packed. People need to drink in order to put up with this shitty weather. Well, at least the bars stay open here later than they do in California. And the drinks are cheaper.
