I took my dog out for his business this morning and was met with my favorite thing, a foggy morning. In my quiet neighborhood, in a very quiet area, the feeling is that you are alone in a very eerie universe.

Daily photos from Oklahoma City and the surrounding metro area
Oklahoma is called the Sooner State, because when the state was opened up land was given away not by lottery but by land run, in a "shotgun start" style. At a certain time, all the settlers lined up at the starting line took off at a dead run and ran as fast as their buggies, coaches, buckboards, horses and legs could take them until they could find land that no one had claimed, 160 acres at a time. Unfortunately, not everyone waited for the starting shot and took off Sooner than they were supposed to: hence, the Sooner State. This bronze statue, actually a series of statues depicting the land run, is found along the canal in Bricktown, in downtown Oklahoma City (OKC) and when finished will be the largest bronze statuary in the world.

Who knew suburbia could be so spooky. Great photo!
Wow that is some fog. I thought there was a fire at first. I just noticed you have my blog noted on yours. I grew up in Tulsa and moved to Telluride 1 1/2 years ago!! I'll add you to my blogroll.
It is a spooky surreal image.
Neat shot. I like it. Thanks for visiting my blog.
