From my perch on the North Shore, I can see mountain ridges beyond the south end of the lake, shining white and sharply etched against a cobalt sky.
Whitecaps spread across the lake.
It s spring, and windy. The air is crystal clear. In winter, and during summer mornings, the air is often still. Tiny particles of smoke, dust, and sulfates accumulate, float in the air, and produce haze. During those windless, stagnant periods, we see a layer of haze obscuring the lower reaches of those mountains to the south.
