Foggy patches

Driving to Adelaide with my mum
Heading for the Royal Adelaide Hospital
It's her monthly check up chum
Yes: seeing the specialist at the Hospital
Got up at such an ungodly hour
It was so cold and so quiet and still
Heading for the big city: no detour!
Had to dress well so as not to catch a chill!!
Got through the first little towns all right!
Glossop was empty as yet: Barmera too!
The sun was rising slowly up to its height
Warming up that cold icy air: heater on too!
We got to Waikerie and saw up ahead of us
Could've been smoke hanging in the air 
Had me worried: we'd seen bush fires: what a fuss?
It was a massive low lying cloud of fog hanging there!
Lights blazing we drove through that darkened mist
Kept on going heading along that bitumen road 
Wondering if it would go on through the hills: get my gist?
Praying for sunshine as we drove Highway 20's road!
